Book synopsis

This book analyses the role of teacher identities and power relationships in social interaction. This textbook uses analysis of interaction in a range of teacher education and professional practice settings in ELT to explore the different identities and power relationships which teachers orient to. It traces the role of identity and interaction in the processes of acquiring new teaching skills and knowledge, reflecting on professional practice and constructing teaching selves, and explores the limits and constraints on these processes imposed by global forces such as the marketization of education. The book is written for teachers, teacher educators, postgraduate students and researchers interested in the relationships between social interaction, identity and professional practice in ELT. It is suitable for use in conjunction with any postgraduate-level course on language in interaction, as it surveys and critically discusses various approaches and includes many practical examples. It includes a full survey of approaches to the study of language teacher learning and identity. It provides an introduction to a range of frameworks for analyzing talk and identity in teacher education and professional practice contexts. It analyses spoken data from activities such as guided lesson-planning, post-teaching reflection and discussion of teaching materials. It includes practice tasks, discussion points, and references for further reading.
