Abstract:

This book focuses on the practice cycle, or practicum, of ELT
education programmes. Practice teaching is a key component of all good
ELTE programmes, and provides a forum for novice teachers to begin to
cross the theory/practice divide in a way which allows them to try out
ideas in a classroom setting. This typically happens after a period of
theoretical induction and the observation of more experienced
teachers, and can often begin in a very scaffolded way through micro-
or team- teaching, before moving to more independence. At all stages
of this practice-oriented process, reflection is a fundamental and
obligatory underlying principle, the integration of which leads to
informed decisions on change implementation to improve teaching.

The book begins with a theoretical and research-informed introduction
to both Reflective Practice (RP) and the practicum, followed by
definitions and typologies. Various tools and sources of evidence to
support the RP process during the practicum are investigated, using
many data-rich examples from our own and others’ professional contexts
over a number of years. These are applied to observation of more
experienced teachers and self-observation of one’s own practice as
facilitators of informed decisions for change. Finally, the process of
RP as a life-long developmental practice is explored.
