From the author: In this article, the authors challenge historical relations of power, which have valued academic knowledge over the experiential knowledge of teachers and claim that such knowledge is valuable and should be seen as legitimate. At the same time, though, they argue that there is a need to assess the knowledge produced by teachers and academics and offer a conceptual apparatus for conducting such assessments. According to the authors, assessment needs to be an ongoing process that occurs within a collaborative setting where differences in perspective are used as strengths to aid researchers (both teachers and academics) in critically examining their perceptions. More specifically, the authors suggest that by incorporating both insider and outsider knowledge (i.e., experiential and traditional forms of academic knowledge) into teacher research reports, a relational type of assessment can occur where both types of knowledge forms can be scrutinized.
