This autoethnography explored how two third-grade dual language teacher partners (English/Spanish) managed challenges such as lack of leadership support, testing pressures, and English hegemony, to help their students grow personally and academically. Autoethnography was chosen as a method because it enables researchers to write evocatively…

In this study, we integrated corpus technology in pre-service TESOL (Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages) teachers' technological pedagogical content knowledge (TPACK) development in corpus technology, termed corpus-based language pedagogy (CBLP), and highlighted the collaborative effort for knowledge building among participants for…

The purpose of this qualitative case study was to examine how teacher collaboration influenced the participation of Leo, an ESL student, in a collaboratively taught classroom at a middle school in the Southeastern United States. To this aim, this study consisted of two collaborative cycles and used the constant comparative method to analyze the…

English learner (EL) students face the challenge of learning a new language while simultaneously learning other subjects. Similarly, English as Second Language (ESL) teachers have the added responsibility of teaching academic language in STEM subjects to EL students, in addition to language teaching. This article explores how a participant…

Teacher cognition has been a major topic of interest in applied linguistics as researchers have worked toward "better understanding the fullness of the work of teaching, a fullness that has proved complex and problematic" (Burns et al., 2015, p. 585). This qualitative study draws upon participant interview data in order to analyze and…

Co-teaching studies of native English speaking teachers (NESTs) and local English teachers (LETs) have identified numerous factors debilitative to professional collaboration. The aim of this case study is to identify factors facilitative to co-teaching that may lead to more productive avenues of change than continual re-identification of…

This academic article, utilizing an analytical literature review, aimed to explore the multifaceted roles of English for Specific Purposes (ESP) practitioners. It was found that there were five key roles responsible by the practitioners: (1) teaching; (2) course designing and material providing; (3) researching; (4) collaborating; and (5)…

Teacher identity construction has long been investigated within the field of English language teaching.

Even though the teacher has a great role to determine learning process, only few research findings link collaborative teacher to student learning motivation. This study aims to identify predictions of correlation between students' perceptions…

The way engineering students perceive an engineering course that is co-taught between an English instructor and two engineering faculty at an English medium instruction (EMI) university has not been studied. In order to better understand how students perceive such a course, a survey consisting of 12 items with a 5-point Likert-scale and two…

This autoethnographic study reports on a team-teaching experience in a bilingual education class in Taiwan. For decades, governments in East Asia have promoted team teaching between a native English-speaking teacher (NEST) and a local teacher (LT) in English as a foreign language (EFL) classrooms. These programs are now expanding to include…
