6.2 Theoretical Framework

Teaching is a profession that should be considered a moral practice, not just a collection of skills and techniques (Carr, 2000; Palmer, 1997). In order for educators to make changes in their behavior, they need to explore its underlying sources, including how their mission as educators influences their professional identities and what behavior and competences they develop to carry out their work within different environments (Korthagen & Vasalos, 2010). When looking at their teaching as a moral practice, educators must open up their professional ideas about teaching and learning, goals and processes, to discussion (Þorsteinsson, 2003). By doing so, as leaders in the field of education, educators critically reflect in and on their practice while at the same time taking the ethical stance of creating opportunities for all students to learn and make something out of their education (Kristinsson, 2013).
