Abstract
In a community of practice, such as those designed to support teachers' professional development, learning is fostered through participation in the joint enterprise of the community as teachers appropriate practice and engage in guided participation of practice. Because sociocultural activity is not sequential or isolated, this study explores the interaction between guided participation and appropriation in one environment designed to support teacher learning: side-by-side coaching. In side-by-side coaching, a teacher and coach partner to co-enact a focal pedagogical practice with the teacher's students during instruction. In our analysis, we explore the relationship between appropriation and guided participation during side-by-side coaching, finding two kinds of teacher learning opportunities at their intersection. Both theoretically and analytically, our findings indicate that appropriation is inherent to the process of teacher learning, rather than an outcome or end point.
