Abstract
This article reports on a small scale research project which investigated the Modern Foreign Language In-service provision offered by 52 Local Educational Authorities in England and Wales since the introduction of the National Curriculum in 1992. It then compares this analysis with the expressed In-service needs of Heads of Departments in secondary schools. The project is set against a background of a shifting but welcome perspective on In-service training.
期刊介绍:
The Language Learning Journal (LLJ) provides a forum for scholarly contributions on current aspects of foreign language and teaching. LLJ is an international, peer-reviewed journal that is intended for an international readership, including foreign language teachers, language teacher educators, researchers and policy makers. Contributions, in English, tend to assume a certain range of target languages. These are usually, but not exclusively, the languages of mainland Europe and ‘Community Languages’; other languages, including English as a foreign language, may also be appropriate, where the discussion is sufficiently generalisable. The following are key areas of interest: -Relationships between policy, theory and practice- Pedagogical practices in classrooms and less formal settings Foreign language learning/teaching in all phases, from early learners to higher and adult education- Policy and practice in the UK and other countries- Classroom practice in all its aspects- Classroom-based research- Methodological questions in teaching and research- Multilingualism and multiculturalism- New technologies and foreign languages
