This paper analyzes the process and impact of a pre- |
|
service teacher education course assignment that engaged |
|
teacher candidates in developing and delivering an ESL |
|
professional development night for faculty colleagues and |
|
teachers from the field. The night involved a reader's |
|
theatre performance and follow-up discussion of Tara |
|
Goldstein's (2003) play "Hong Kong, Canada," exploring |
|
issues facing students and teachers in a multilingual |
|
high school, as well as a resource display containing |
|
content-based ESL lessons and resources developed by the |
|
candidates. Feedback received from teacher candidates who |
|
organized and led the session suggests that the evening |
|
was successful in enhancing candidates' ESL-related and |
|
professional confidence, and helping them apply learning |
|
from the course in practical and meaningful ways. |
|
Situating findings within the context of ESL teacher |
|
education in Manitoba, implications for collaborative |
|
curriculum development and bridging the theory/practice |
|
divide are discussed. |
