Abstract
The field of teaching is a dynamic, evolving field since its goals are to fulfil the needs of learners and teachers. Teaching practices in the District of Bogota are not an exemption. The recent General Law of Education required that teachers work institutionally as a team. Therefore, team work is beginning to take place at schools and as a phenomenon it is necessary to research on how to build teacher communities in order to improve teachers' professional development as individuals and as members of a community.
