Data-based teacher development

Simon Borg

Assistant lecturer in English at the University of Malta. He has also worked as an EFL teacher educator in the UK and New Zealand. He is currently completing a PhD into the personal theories of EFL teachers, with specific reference to the teaching of grammar. His main interests are process-oriented teacher education and grammar teaching.

This article describes how data from ELT classroom research can be exploited in teacher development activities. It begins by outlining the contribution data-based activities can make to teacher development and presents a practical example to illustrate the principles underlying their design. A case is made for using such activities to facilitate teachers' growth as reflective practitioners, and to promote a more productive view of the relationship between research and teacher development in ELT.
