Teacher-training course design: a case study

Alan Waters

Alan Waters has taught EFL and trained teachers in Africa, the Middle East, South East Asia, and England. He has recently resumed work at the Institute of English Language Education, University of Lancaster after a four-year attachment to King Mongkut's Institute of Technology, Thonburi, Thailand, where he was involved in developing an MA programme in English for Special Purposes.

Course design for teacher training is something of a closed book. This article is an attempt to remedy the matter. It stems from work done since 1984 at King Mongkut's Institute of Technology, Thonburi (Thailand), on developing a series of teaching methodology courses as part of the programme for the MA in English for Science and Technology. In what follows, the main features of these courses are presented, together with an account of the trials and tribulations involved in the design process. Some general conclusions about teacher training course design are also drawn.1
