Second Language Teacher Education
Book (italiano):
Johnson (applied linguistics, Pennsylvania State U.) presents a text for teacher educators who direct or teach in second language (L2) teacher education programs, researchers investigating such programs, graduate students preparing to become L2 teacher educators, and seasoned L2 teachers who find themselves in L2 teacher educator roles without adequate background in the theory and research. The text offers an overview of the epistemological underpinnings of a sociocultural perspective on human learning, in particular what such an approach can offer L2 teacher education. Johnson argues that a sociocultural perspective on human learning changes the way we think about L2 teacher education; language; L2 teaching; the broader, constantly evolving social, cultural, and historical macro-structures in the L2 teaching profession; and what constitutes L2 teacher professional development.
