Teacher-research reports

This section of the website showcases research conducted by language teachers and teacher educators into their own practice. We are aiming to encourage sharing of experience through a wide variety of formats -- non-conventional as well as conventional -- including (but not limited to) video-recorded talks, podcast versions of conference presentations, newsletter articles, stories, visual diaries, posters, more formal reports, and so on. Click on links below to access reports uploaded or linked to so far. 

Please contact Richard Smith if you would like to contribute a report, video-recorded presentation, article etc. about your own teacher-research to this space. He will be happy to give you advice about possible formats.

You are also welcome to join the Facebook group associated with the 'Teachers Research!' conferences – there you will see and be able to post about further examples of teacher-research, as well as get news of events related to teacher-research.
