Our sister LRC, the Center for Advanced Research on Language Acquisition (CARLA), has recently added a new publication to its treasure trove of free working papers:

Bridging Contexts, Making Connections: Selected Papers from the Fifth International Conference on Language Teacher Education
Edited by Mike Anderson and Anne Lazaraton

The eight papers selected for inclusion in this volume reflect the diversity of voices in the field. While each paper speaks to a different teaching environment, they all highlight 'best practices' in language teacher education. Some of the papers address practices in different contexts and others challenge readers to rethink the knowledge base of language teacher education, to think critically about what this knowledge consists of and why, and to describe classroom and professional tools that will best equip language teachers to help their students achieve their language learning goals.
