第二语言教育的教师自主性研究

【Abstract】 While the teacher education literature tend to equate teacher autonomy with professional freedom,the second/ foreign language education literature views professional freedom as one but by no means the most important element in a conception of teacher autonomy.Reviewing the development of the idea of teacher autonomy in second language education,we begin by outlining its origins in the literature on learner autonomy.We then discuss three major phases in the evolution of the idea of teacher autonomy in second language education,involving concerns with:(1)teacher roles,(2)teacher professionalism,and(3)professional freedom. In conclusion,we discuss the implications of different conceptions of teacher autonomy for teacher education practice and research.更多还原
