This Element examines how pedagogical innovation in language
classrooms can be mediated through language teacher education (LTE)
by subjecting the author's own practices as a teacher educator to
scrutiny. Starting from the premise that implementing innovation
can be a challenging enterprise, effective LTE is framed as being
built on helping practitioners to recognise and confront often
deeply-rooted beliefs and adjust subsequent practices through
critical reflection on what an innovation may look like both
theoretically and practically. A critically reflective lens is then
applied to the author's own work as a teacher educator over several
years through a research approach known as self-study of teacher
education practices or S-STEP. The approach highlights changes to
the author's beliefs and practices as lessons emerged from
beginning teachers' engagement with innovative ideas. These are
presented with the aim of better understanding how teachers'
beliefs and practices with regard to innovation can be enhanced
effectively.
