Overview

Exploring the Principles of Reflective Practice in ELT sheds light on the ways in which reflective practice is exploited in the Turkish context by introducing the research and practical applications in different language education settings. In Turkey there is a great amount of knowledge and research in English Language Teaching (ELT) in general, and reflective practice in particular. Extensive publications and national and international conference presentations on reflection-related topics are increasingly common in Turkey. This book includes examples of this scholarly work, so that ELT professionals in different parts of the globe may benefit from the advances made in context-dependent reflective practice applications in Turkey. This book is a call to action for all ELT professionals, whether experienced, novice or student teachers, leaders, managers or teacher educators, who wish to invest in their own professional development by engaging in reflective practice. By sharing a variety of perspectives from scholars in Turkey, the book contributes to the diversity of understanding and interpretations of this practice.
