“Exploring the potential of action research in language education: Opportunities and challenges in local and global contexts”
Action research communities (ARC) (.https://wwwecml.at/actionresearch) webinar with
Dr. Jane O’Toole (Teacher (Scoil Chrónáin Senior National School, Dublin https://www.stcronanssns.ie) CARN Coordinating Group Member (Collaborative Action Research Network https://www.carn.org.uk) Researcher (https://www.researchgate.net/profile/Jane-Otoole-3))
As a follow-up event to ARC Trainings and Consultancies, the ARC-Network is inviting you to participate in our interactive webinar which will explore the potential of action research in language education.
- Why action research?
- How does an action research methodology support language education both in terms of research and practice?
- What are the opportunities and challenges that arise in conducting action research in the sphere of language education?
- How might I go about integrating action research into my practice as a language educator?
These are just some of the questions to be unpacked as we examine both local and global contexts of language education. The webinar will be presented by Dr. Jane O'Toole, a practising schoolteacher in Ireland with a special interest in both language education and action research. The discussion will include insights into the Irish language context which will serve to illuminate the opportunities and challenges of action research in endangered language contexts in addition to inviting participants to share perspectives on their own local and global understandings of language education.
Target groups: The webinar which is moderated by the ARC team is open to everyone. It is likely to be of particular interest to participants in the Action research Communities’ Training and Consultancy workshops (and those registered for 2024 events) as well as to members of the CARN Network.
Webinar language: English
As only a limited number of places are available for the webinar, registration will be based on a first come, first served basis.
