“…Consequently, there is a plethora of models that describe teachers' professional development. They do not necessarily consider it as a linear, step-wise experience, but rather as an ongoing, dynamic, multicontextual endeavor that involves multiple circles in which the teacher belongs (e.g., school, professional communities, and home; Ferreira, Ryan, & Tilbury, 2007;Grossi, Oliveira, Barbosa, & Oliveira, 2016;Yurtseven Avci & O'Dwyer, 2016).
