Teaching in Action: Case Studies from Second Language Classrooms

This book is a collection of 75 short case studies that describe how teachers respond to problems they encounter in their teaching. Each case study describes the context in which the teacher is working, the problem that occurred, and how the teacher responded to the problem. Following each case study is a short commentary by a teacher educator who reflects on the type of problem the teacher encountered and the teacher's solution. This book can be used as a source of ideas for teachers and teacher educators in pre- and in-service teacher education programs.
