Teacher Development Over Time: Practical Activities for Language
Teachers addresses teacher learning over the span of the careers of
both novice and experienced teachers in English Language Teaching
(ELT). It is designed to a) help novice ELT teachers to see the
ways in which their learning may open up careers and communities
over a professional life span; and b) support experienced ELT
teachers in understanding where they are in their careers and how
they may respond creatively to the challenges in that particular
career phase. Part 1 synthesises the views of major research on
teaching as it is experienced over time by teachers and discusses
the implications. Readers engage with these ideas via the
activities in Part 2, which encourage them to reflect on their
career paths and on possible themes for future work. Part 3
describes ways teachers can set the Part 2 activities within a busy
professional life, and Part 4 helps teachers to engage in further
explorations on their own or with others. By merging a strong line
of research with very practical tools for understanding
professional development, Teacher Development Over Time proves to
be an indispensable resource for language teachers as well as
teacher educators and mentors.

This collection illuminates the process of course development through the narratives of six ESL/EFL teachers who have designed courses in widely varying contexts worldwide. Graves provides a framework for course design and examines how these six teachers have utilized or departed from the framework in meeting the challenges of their particular situations. Each narrative is followed by an analysis and a set of tasks that direct the reader's attention to a particular aspect of the framework.
"ICON" is a four-level integrated skills series that takes students
from a beginning to an intermediate level. "ICON" prepares students
to express themselves naturally in English.
"ICON" has been developed as a result of an in-depth research
project into the role of the course book in effective teaching and
learning. From this research, the series has distilled a set of
core activities, which are varied and recurring to create effective
teacher-learner interaction in the classroom. "ICON" has been
designed to support students and teachers in both large and small
classes.
