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 book is about planning lessons and courses for students of English as a foreign language. It is the only book on the market totally devoted to this. It does not take the view that "planning" equals writing pages and pages of notes by an assessor or observer. Rather it takes the everyday reality of the working teacher as they design short and long instructional units. Each chapter is based on a real life question, such as: Who are the students? When is the lesson? What can go in to a lesson or course? How do people learn? How can I teach? What materials can I choose? How can I get started on planning? What are my constraints and freedoms? What activities can I use and adapt?Each chapter contains both thought provoking analysis of parts of a teacher's job and many practical principles clearly explained. The book is designed to help inexperienced teachers gather working routines and sequences of ideas and to help experienced teachers to refresh the routines they have grown used to.
