Solidarity with solidity

For decades, education researchers have been drawing attention to the importance of professional collaboration among teachers as a way to improve student achievement. But not all collaboration is equally effective. Andy Hargreaves and Michael O’Connor explain that the most successful and sustainable efforts are characterized by both solidity and solidarity, meaning that they draw on both expert knowledge and strong collegial relationships, creating what the authors call collaborative professionalism. A network of rural teachers in the Pacific Northwest who enhance curriculum across multiple schools and a lesson study program in Hong Kong are two examples of such successful collaborations.

Abstract.—Spiny dogfish Squalus acanthias have historically been a prominent species in the Pacific Northwest. Overfishing, however, has resulted in the curtailment of some commercial dogfish fisheries in Washington State. Historically valuable for oil and also as a food fish, dogfish has nevertheless garnered the reputation of a trash fish for its predation on commercial and recreational species, and of a nuisance fish for damage caused to fishing gear. This study employs cultural consensus analysis to compare expert knowledge structures of recreational fishermen and fishery scientists concerning dogfish biology, ecology, and management and conservation in Puget Sound. Results show that fishermen and scientists share a common knowledge base. Cultural consensus findings have positive implications for the future development of hypotheses fundamental in scientific inquiry and also for regulatory and educational functions of dogfish management.
