TESOL Journal Special Issue 2022: Call for Proposals 

Moving forward with TESOL materials development 

Guest editors:

Tat Heung Choi, Hong Kong Baptist University
Hang Chan, Hong Kong Baptist University

Background: 

In the spirit of TESOL Journal (TJ), we share the collective aspirations to
involve teachers in professional dialogue to generate knowledge and exemplary
practice, as well as to nurture engaged and resourceful learners with the
language and cultural awareness, rhetorical sensitivity, and negotiation
strategies necessary for effective communication in global contexts
(Canagarajah, 2014).  To achieve these laudable goals, we need to renew our
focus on TESOL teachers as “agents of methodological change” (Harmer, 2007),
especially during these challenging times with remote learning against the
pandemic.  We envision this special issue to be of interest to the TESOL
community with our concern to promote inventive practices and
teacher-generated materials, as well as critical perspectives on materials
through evaluation.

Call for proposals:

To move forward with TESOL materials development in this ever-changing world
(e.g., Bouckaert, Konings, & van Winkelhof, 2018; Tomlinson, 2003, 2017;
Tomlinson & Masuhara, 2010), it is useful to enable an active and vibrant
professional dialogue from an applied research perspective as well as a
theoretical or conceptual viewpoint.  With its emphasis on teaching and
learning being socially situated, relational, activity-based, and
experiential, this special issue provides a forum for TESOL experts and
practitioners at all levels to make critical inquiries into materials
development in constructive, autonomous, and creative ways.  The expected end
products will be an ensemble of pedagogies celebrating teacher-generated
materials with originality, as well as teacher-adapted cultural artefacts,
literary texts, and creative media, against mass-produced, ready-made
materials that do not serve dissimilar needs and interests of learners in
diverse contexts.

Topics of interest for this special issue include but are not limited to the
following:

- Choice, control, and creativity in TESOL materials development
- Teacher autonomy and identity in materials development
- Critical evaluations of TESOL materials and ideological representations 
- Tensions and rewards of materials development for professional learning
- Teacher-generated or adapted materials for sociocultural learning and
multimodal communication 
- Remote English language learning and teachers as resourceful agents of
change

Submission guidelines:

Interested authors should submit an anonymous abstract of 250–300 words (as a
Word file) describing their proposed article for initial screening, and supply
a separate title page file (including all authors’ names, affiliations and
email contacts).  Authors should clearly indicate that their proposals relate
to the 2022 special issue on “Moving forward with TESOL materials
development”.  Authors of selected abstracts will be invited to submit full
versions of their manuscripts for review.  An invitation to submit a full
manuscript, however, does not guarantee publication; final decisions will be
made through a blind peer review process.  Proposals and questions relating to
this special issue should be emailed to tesjsi2022 at gmail.com for the editors’
attention.
