Perspectives on Professional Learning, Identity, and Agency
Redaktion: Jiménez Raya, Manuel; Vieira, Flávia; Manzano Vázquez, Borja

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

This book aims to challenge established teaching cultures to promote teacher autonomy and autonomy-oriented pedagogies in language teacher education.

Offering a set of inspiring case studies that illustrate language teacher education for autonomy as a space of multiple possibilities, the book fuses theory and practice and gives a holistic view of the changing landscape of language teacher education, accounting for the transformative power of educational practices that help teachers think and act in informed, context-specific, and learner-centred ways. It also demonstrates the importance of autonomy in language teacher education contexts, specifically to foster teachers' professional learning, identity, and agency, as well as in assessing and reshaping teacher education programmes.

This book will be particularly useful to researchers, scholars, and postgraduate students in the fields of teaching and teacher education, modern foreign languages, and teaching and learning language research more broadly. Curriculum designers and language teacher education programme directors may also find the volume of use.
