摘要

本次活动报告的目的是对英国高等教育现代外语教师专业群体的现状进行初步评估。该报告分为两部分:一是文献综述,确定了现代外语教师的主要定义素质;二是对英国高等教育中语言教师的专业和学术概况进行评估,这些评估显示在他们所在大学的机构网站上。对收集到的数据的分析证实了文献中确定的特征:教学人员地位低,进入该职业的途径通常非常规,“母语者”结构作为渴望教授该语言的候选人的理想特征的流行,语言教师资格的差异,以及他们对研究活动的参与度低。未来的前景包括验证(或在必要时修改)从从事语言教师工作的个人帐户收集的数据。

An initial assessment of the academic and professional profile of modern foreign languages’ teachers in UK higher education
Abstract The aim of this activity report is to provide an initial appraisal of the current makeup of the professional group of modern foreign language teachers in UK Higher Education. The report is in two parts: a literature review that identifies the main defining qualities of modern foreign languages teachers, and an evaluation of the professional and academic profiles of language teachers in UK higher education, as displayed in the institutional websites of the universities where they work. The analysis of the data collected corroborates the characteristics identified in the literature: the low status of teaching staff, the often unconventional entry paths into the profession, the prevalence of the “native speaker” construct as a desirable feature in candidates who aspire to teach the language, the disparity in qualifications of language teachers, and their low engagement in research activities. Future prospects involve the verification (or amendment, where necessary) of the data collected with accounts from individuals who work as language teachers.
