This study analyzes the effects of a professional development program on communication between teachers and students, in terms of topical sequencing and quality of dialogue. Four teachers participated with their groups in two public elementary schools from the same school district and socioeconomic level. The two schools were randomly assigned as an experimental group and a control group. During fifteen sessions, the experimental group participated in a teacher development program, while the control group continued with its regular classes. For each teacher, two videotaped classes were analyzed: one at the beginning and another at the end of school year. The results showed that the experimental group had more topical sequencing in teacher-student interactions, and more actions of dialogue, both in number and variety, than the control group. In addition, the sequencing of the experimental group changed its orientation by moving from activity management to the construction and expansion of learning.
