Red de docentes de inglés: ？una posibilidad para la continuidad de grupos de estudio?

abstract nowadays the development of networking on the part of teachers is promoted in order to work with agendas built in a collaborative, continuous, and flexible way, as well as in accordance with teachers' needs. we report on qualitative research of five english teachers in public schools in bogotá. they took part in a professional development programme and met in study groups in order to conduct an action research project. at the end of the programme the teachers started working as a net with the intent to continue their professional development. information gathered through journals, surveys, and interviews allowed us to identify factors associated with the continuity of the study groups which emerged in the professional development programme as well as some implications for networking.
