Abstract: Outside of traditional professional development such as in-services and workshops, teachers may search for other ways to improve teaching and learning. Online teacher communities such as Classroom 2.0, ProTeacher, and edutopia among others provide spaces for teachers to connect and learn about the profession. This paper presents the context for the potential of online teacher communities to become sources of professional learning. It also includes a list of fifteen online teacher communities and their basic attributes.
