Beschreibung

This book focuses on the study-abroad experiences of pre-service and in-service language teachers and language teacher educators. The diverse contributions to this volume provide readers with a deep understanding of what this mobility means for individuals and the language teaching and learning communities they encounter and return to post-sojourn. Considering the broad variability of study-abroad programs and arrangements, as well as the multidimensional, complex nature of study-abroad social, geographical and digital environments, the chapters discuss the teachers' psychological experiences in cognitive, affective and social terms. Readers will discover the effect of mobility on identity, beliefs, practices, self-efficacy, agency, self-confidence, independence and personal growth, as well as how transitions across borders can result in feelings of self-doubt, anxiety and insecurity. This is essential reading for language teacher educators, mentors and supervisors, managers of study-abroad programs and researchers working in the fields of study abroad, international education and language teacher education.

Rezensionen / Stimmen

This wide-ranging and well-structured resource provides fascinating insights into various aspects of study-abroad experiences. Including views from pre-service, in-service language teachers and language teacher educators, it captures diverse and multidimensional perspectives. The chapters' 'practical implications' will be invaluable for teacher educators in their efforts to design and support appropriate educational experiences. * Steve Mann, University of Warwick, UK * COVID has disrupted, and demanded a re-imagining of studying abroad, often a crucial component in language teacher education programmes. This book brings together soul-searching empirical studies from diverse educational contexts to explore the meaning of studying abroad for language teachers. These deeply reflective narratives from language teachers and language teacher education researchers provide an up-to-date and humanistic understanding of a critical approach to internationalisation studies. * Alice Chik, Macquarie University, Australia * ...a vital resource for understanding the complex experiences of language teachers in foreign contexts. It adeptly balances theoretical insights with practical implications, making it an essential read for those involved in language teacher education, study-abroad program development and administration. As the landscape of language education continues to expand and transform, works like this will play a key role in guiding the future of language teacher education in transnational contexts. * Hongni Gou, The University of Arizona, USA, System 121, 2024 * The book is useful for at least two reasons. First, for those planning to study abroad, this book can serve as a compass as to how to traverse a seemingly complicated journey of living and studying in a foreign country. Second, this book can give people who organize LTSA programmes a better idea as to how their programmes can be further improved. The teachers and teacher educators can get relevant information as to what and how they should prepare before, during and even after studying abroad. * Noel T. Franco, Jr, Bulacan State University, Philippines, ELT Journal 2024 *
