Abstract:

Language teacher education is widely identified as one of the most important
areas that needs addressing in order to improve early language instruction,
yet research into teacher education for early language teachers remains
relatively sparse. This volume responds to this gap by compiling studies with
diverse methodological tenets from a wide range of geographical and
educational contexts around the world. The volume aims to enhance
understanding of early language teacher education as well as to address the
need to prepare early language teachers and assist them in their professional
development. The chapters focus on the complexity of teacher learning,
innovations in mentoring and teacher supervision, strategies in programme
development and perceptions, and knowledge and assessment in early language
learning teacher education. The volume offers comprehensive coverage of the
field by addressing various aspects of teacher education in different
languages. The contributions highlight examples of research into current
practice in the professional enhancement of early language learning teachers,
but with an emphasis on the implications for practitioners.
