Abstract

Freeman claims this volume “marks the first step in establishing a formal research base for language teacher education” (p. 352). The direction in which the editors apparently believe language-teacher education needs to move, as stated in the chapter by Richards and his coauthors, is “away from an ‘applied linguistics’ orientation toward one which focuses on teaching in its own terms” (p. 243).
