Abstract:

This Element examines how pedagogical innovation in language classrooms can be
mediated through language teacher education (LTE) by subjecting the author's
own practices as a teacher educator to scrutiny. Starting from the premise
that implementing innovation can be a challenging enterprise, effective LTE is
framed as being built on helping practitioners to recognise and confront often
deeply-rooted beliefs and adjust subsequent practices through critical
reflection on what an innovation may look like both theoretically and
practically. A critically reflective lens is then applied to the author's own
work as a teacher educator over several years through a research approach
known as self-study of teacher education practices or S-STEP. The approach
highlights changes to the author's beliefs and practices as lessons emerged
from beginning teachers' engagement with innovative ideas. These are presented
with the aim of better understanding how teachers' beliefs and practices with
regard to innovation can be enhanced effectively.
