DESCRIPTION:A theory informed approach to collaborative action
  research in classrooms and schools\, called Learn
 ing Study\, has emerged in Hong Kong\, Sweden\, an
 d Austria. It has much in common with Stenhouse’s 
 original idea of the ‘Teacher as a Researcher’. It
  consists of a unique integration\, forged initial
 ly in Hong Kong by Lo Mun Ling and her co-workers\
 , of Variation Theory\, developed by Ference Marto
 n and his co-workers in Sweden\, and Japanese Less
 on Study. Although the latter has rapidly internat
 ionalised across the USA\, South Asia\, and Europe
  over the last decade what is now known as Learnin
 g Study is more focussed on students’ experience o
 f learning\, and provides teachers and collaborati
 ng curriculum/pedagogical experts with a common la
 nguage for the analysis and development of practic
 e. The author will demonstrate that Learning Study
 \, which he evaluated in Hong Kong\, shares many c
 ritical features in common with Stenhouse’s idea o
 f the Teacher as Researcher\, and as such holds ou
 t the original promise that teachers might finally
  take control over the systematic development of a
  shared stock of pedagogical knowledge. Learning S
 tudy it will be argued is now at the cutting edge 
 of the development of action research theory and p
 ractice.\n\nThe live seminars can also be attended
