IDIOM NO.59

The English Teacher as Researcher

This edition of Idiom focuses on an important aspect of the work of English educators, the English teacher as researcher. Individual teachers may undertake a practitioner inquiry inspired by a need they’ve identified or an issue observed in their English classroom or curriculum. Other teachers engage in research in a more collaborative way, as part of a community of English educators, reflecting on their practice, sharing their stories, and learning from each others’ experiences to improve the teaching and learning of English in their context.
