Description
Summary:•Human capital is developed and shaped through social learning processes.•Social capital facilitates or constrains the accessibility and mobilization of relational resources for professional learning.•Emotional capital supports the development of interpersonal relationships and promotes the professional learning of teachers. Efforts to improve teaching and learning in general are leading to wide variability in outcomes in different countries and areas, with similar investments and reforms focusing on the instrumental side of professional learning.
