Signature Pedagogy
In these discussions, we were intrigued by the deep and implicit structure dimensions of signature pedagogy as they aligned with the work of our colleagues on “systematic and intentional inquiry” (e.g., Moss, 1998; 2001; 2002; Moss & Shank, 2002; c.f., Cochran-Smith & Lytle, 1993). A disposition toward systematic and intentional inquiry–in direct opposition to the “absolute answer” mindset perpetrated by “best practice” forms of professional development–encourages educators to engage in professional learning as informed skeptics who constantly “construct knowledge that is organic, always unfinished, deriving from judgment and belief and revealed though action” (Moss, 2002). This signature pedagogy will be incorporated into each core course and rotation course.
