OUP webinar team says, “If teacher training is our ‘teenagehood’ as teachers, the period when we ‘learn the ropes’, then teacher development is ‘coming of age’, reaching ‘adulthood’.
Conducting classroom-based research is a valuable form of teacher development and a part of maturing as teachers, by better understanding our own decision-making and taking responsibility over what we do.
In this webinar, we’ll look at the ‘why/what/when/how’ of teacher-led, classroom-based research and how it builds on the processes of evaluation and research we, teachers, carry out daily”.
