Knowledge-Base in ELT Education: A Narrative-Driven Discussion
HOW, v29 n1 p194-211 Jan-Jun 2022
Knowledge and experience, mediated by reflection, are essential components in teacher education and development programs. This paper discusses core elements that have guided ELT education in the last years and analyzes the case of five English language teacher educators who--in the Colombian context--reflect on their own pedagogical practices through narrative. I guide the discussion by four probing questions that generate a reflective overview of English language teachers' knowledge-base, identity construction, and decision-making when it comes to localizing knowledge. This reflection uncovers teacher educators' gains and challenges as it becomes input for those others who are at different stages of their teaching career.
