EDINBURGH TEXTBOOKS IN APPLIED LINGUISTICS Series Editors: Alan Davies, Erik Schleef and Gibson Ferguson Founding Editor: Keith Mitchell This textbook series provides advanced introductions to the main areas of study in contemporary Applied Linguistics, with a principle focus on the theory and practice of language teaching and language learning and on the processes and problems of language in use. Classroom Discourse and Teacher Development Steve Walsh Reflective practice is central to teacher education and development, yet it is something that many teachers struggle with. Can reflective practice be refocused by asking teachers to place classroom interaction and discourse at the centre of their reflections? In this accessible textbook, Steve Walsh explains why it is essential to put an understanding of classroom discourse at the centre of any second language teacher education programme, whether it is a formal programme under the guidance of a teacher educator or a more informal, self-directed programme of teacher development. He argues that in order to improve their professional practice, language teachers need to gain a detailed, up-close understanding of their local context by focusing on the complex relationship between teacher language, classroom interaction and learning. In order to do this, he revisits and reconceptualises the notion of reflective practice by giving teachers appropriate tools which allow them to reflect on and improve their professional practice. This thought-provoking book not only stimulates debate on classroom discourse and reflective practice, but also contains practical exercises and advice, which will be invaluable to both new and experienced language teachers as well as to researchers in applied linguistics. Steve Walsh is Professor of Applied Linguistics at the University of Newcastle. Cover design: River Design, Edinburgh [EUP logo] www.euppublishing.com
