Abstract:

Reflective Practice in ESL Teacher Development Groups discusses the concept of
reflective practice in ESL teachers using data from a 3-year collaborative
partnership in which three ESL teachers in Canada explored their professional
development through reflective practice. The process involved regular group
discussions, teacher journal writing, classroom observations and pre and
post-interviews of each teacher. This fresh bottom-up approach to professional
development will enhance knowledge on what counts for professional development
of ESL teachers and can promote ESL teacher-initiated professional development
that is more focused towards classroom realities, based on knowledge that is
co-constructed through engagement with experience, and systematic reflections,
and is grounded in real teaching situations.
