| Abstract | The Learning Community program at the University of Wisconsin Oshkosh brings together four individual teacher education methods courses in an integrated block with clinical field experience. The program provides teacher educators the opportunity to integrate their instruction with other courses and contextualize the learning of students with classroom experiences. For one teacher educator in the program, the most satisfying collaborative relationship within the Learning Community was with his colleagues. The forum provided the teacher educators with their first opportunity to discuss their teaching and to discover what the others were doing. The teacher educator's involvement with the Learning Community caused him to become reinvolved with cooperating teachers after an extended absence from the field of supervision. The Learning Community gave cooperating teachers more voice. Also the Learning Community provided cooperating teachers enhanced credibility. Students' responses to this new way of teaching and learning were negative--the two lowest sets of ratings one teacher educator received from groups of students were from the first two cohort groups in the Learning Community. Continuing concerns include (1) how to form communities of learners that are truly inclusive and promote a positive experience for all involved; and (2) whether contextualizing learning causes students to value methods instruction more, or whether the teacher educators find themselves competing with the field experience.
