Abstract:

This volume examines the agency of second/foreign language teachers in diverse
geographical contexts and in both K-12 and adult education. It offers new
understandings and conceptualizations of second/foreign language teacher
agency through a variety of types of empirical data. It also demonstrates the
use of different methodologies or analytic tools to study the
multidimensional, dynamic and complex nature of second/foreign language
teacher agency. The chapters draw on a range of theories and approaches to
language teacher agency (including ecological theory, positioning theory,
complexity theory and actor-network theory) that expand our understanding of
the concept, while at the same time presenting various analytic approaches
such as discourse studies and narrative inquiry. The chapters also analyze the
connection of agency to other relevant topics, such as teacher identity,
emotions, positioning and autonomy.
