Fostering a Theoretical and Practical Understanding of Teaching as a Relational Process: A Feminist Participatory Study of Mentoring a Doctoral Student
Authors: Buck Gayle A., Mast Colette M., Macintyre Latta Margaret A., Kaftan Juliann M.
The authors desired a mentoring approach for graduate students in education that would foster an understanding and practice of teaching as a relational process. This article provides a practitioner account of an action research study focused on the development of such an approach. In a semester-long feminist participatory study, the authors utilized weekly dialogues, reflective journals, classroom observations and written documents to explore the mentoring experience of one graduate advisor, one graduate teaching assistant, and two critical friends.

Terms of inquiry
Authors: Buck Gayle A., Leslie-Pelecky Diandra, Carpenter Lora, Macintyre Latta Margaret A.
The article contradicts the notion that teaching and learning in practice are forms of applied science. Using middle school science classrooms, the authors argue that the true process driving both teaching and learning is inquiry.

Professional Development Risks and Opportunities Embodied within Self-Study
Authors: Macintyre Latta Margaret A., Buck Gayle A.
This paper documents a self-study research group's development and its effects on 11 participants. Drawing on the scholarship of the self-study tradition within educational research, we see teacher knowledge as an important and largely untapped source for the improvement of teaching. Positioning participants to look at the sense and selves being made on a continual basis is the task embraced by this self-study group. The paper reveals professional development risks and opportunities confronted by educators through vulnerably, accountably, integrally, and mindfully negotiating teaching-learning lives.
