This paper presents an outline of a chess master model for in- service teacher development involving the use of the 3-ML Lab. The model consists of four essential components： （a） the design phase, （b） the performance phase, （c） the reflection phase, and （d） the application phase. A mini-case study is presented to demonstrate how the model works in practice. The model is evaluated against other models of teacher development as found in Wallace （1991）. A distinctive feature of the chess master model is its methodology in multimodal text analysis （MTA） as a way for critical self-reflection.展开更多
