Paper Abstract:      This paper explores the ways in which teachers negotiate meaning in their literacy practices, within current curricular conditions, and in doing so, shape and are shaped by their environment. Specifically, I examine the ways in which online learning enhances/inhibits teachers’ attitudes, knowledge and skills to teach reading well. I also explore the way online learning evolves into a community of practice, thereby providing an ‘enunciative space’ where teachers are free to live their stories of practice. As a participant observer in an online Reading Course, I examined the interplay between functions of language, dialogism and reflective practice. I explore design considerations that contribute to understanding the ‘knowledges’ of teacher education as a critical complex epistemology of professional development.
