Abstract
This book captures the 22-year interactions of the longest-standing collaborative group in education who came together as teachers guided by a professor within the context of a $60 million dollar school reform project in the fourth largest urban center in the United States. The relationships evolved and matured into an informal knowledge community of peers co-examining their work. The volume’s introduction begins with a brief overview of the Portfolio Group’s formation in 1998 and introduction to the authors.
