This Element aims to elucidate the concept of language teacher
agency by exploring the 'what' question, offering major
conceptualisations of agency and explaining how they shape the way
we approach teacher agency. The authors then continue with the
'why' question, and elaborate on the reasons that language teacher
agency matters, based on a discussion of the varied purposes of
teacher agency at multiple levels. They also acknowledge that
teacher agency does not operate alone, and discuss how it
intersects with such concepts as teacher identity, emotion, belief
and knowledge. Based on this, they identify ways to promote teacher
agency through making changes to contexts and/or actors. They then
introduce the concept of collective agency and propose a
multi-layered model based on an illustrative study. The Element
ends with a call for a trans-perspective on understanding language
teacher agency so as to facilitate the professional development of
language teachers.
