Title: Call for Writers: Language Teacher Research Series
Body: From http://www.tesol.org/s_tesol/sec_document.asp?CID=6&DID=5904 Language Teacher Research in Australia and New Zealand Language Teacher Research in the Middle East Deadline for contributions: July 31, 2006 Description of Series The Language Teacher Research series is a five-volume series consisting of Language Teacher Research in Asia, Language Teacher Research in Australia and New Zealand, Language Teacher Research in the Americas, Language Teacher Research in Europe, and Language Teacher Research in the Middle East. Teacher as researcher is a relatively new stance toward educational research in that it highlights the role classroom teachers play as knowledge-generators rather than receivers of knowledge. This series attempts to celebrate what is being achieved and to encourage more involvement of language teachers from all types of programs or institutions. The ultimate aim of this series is to encourage an inquiry stance toward language teaching, in which teachers play a crucial role in taking responsibility for their own professional development, while also contributing their particular perspective to the research literature on TESOL. Deadlines Full chapters for volumes on the Americas, Asia, and Europe, were submitted by September 2005. Manuscripts for the volumes on Australia/New Zealand and the Middle East are due July 31, 2006 (this is an extended deadline). Potential contributors are encouraged to contact appropriate volume editors as early as possible with an abstract if they plan to submit a chapter. For more information, visit http://www.tesol.org/s_tesol/sec_document.asp?CID=6&DID=5904 .
