This book examines a range of complex issues concerning the
professional experience (i.e., practicum) in English language
teacher education with regard to curriculum design and
implementation, as well as professional learning. Drawing on a
sociocultural perspective, it explores the context of the
professional experience, preservice teachers as learners of English
language teaching, and the activity of learning to teach English
language in connection with interrelated contextual and personal
issues: contextual issues such as policies, curricula,
university-school partnerships, and mentoring relations are
investigated in relation to personal issues such as the beliefs,
expectations, prior educational experiences, previous teaching
experiences, and cultural-linguistic backgrounds of preservice
teachers. In turn, the book addresses professional learning issues,
including professional identity development, emotional experiences,
and pedagogical learning, in depth. The book delves into the
qualitative "fine-grained" aspects of the professional experience
while also making valuable conceptual contributions through a
sociocultural analysis of the professional learning experience,
which can also be applied to research in other teacher education
contexts. The findings presented here hold practical implications
for English language teacher education in terms of developing a
knowledge base for English language teaching and an effective model
of professional experience to prepare English language teachers for
working in today's expanded, diverse and dynamic neoliberal
contexts.
