AbstractAs technology is transforming the way that people work, communicate, and learn, schools and teachers must accommodate and adapt to these rapidly changing conditions. How to prepare teachers adapting to change is an important focus of the current wave of educational reform. In particular, traditional methods of teacher training has often been criticized for its profound disconnection between theory and practice. To bring about educational reform, reframing the conception of teacher professional development is essential. In this paper, we describe the technological support and design for an online teachers’ network which provides new mode for delivering sustainable lifelong teacher professional development and demonstrates the potential for developing adaptive teachers through collaboration and reflection within a virtual community of practice.
