This presentation introduces preliminary findings of one out of three explorative case studies conducted in real-world settings to allow for research grounded in and intertwined with good practices conducted by expert instructors in the field of education. Characteristics of effective learning environments focussing on the role of the instructor are derived to guide the development of a new model of learning. This first case study was conducted during Fall term 2009 in one of the innovative classes at Harvard Graduate School of Education
