BECERRA-POSADA, Tatiana y ARROYO, Diana Cristina. Colombian Preservice Teachers Enacting Task-Based Language Teaching Principles Before and During the Transition to Remote Teaching. profile [online]. 2023, vol.25, n.2, pp.29-47. Epub 23-Jul-2023. ISSN 1657-0790. https://doi.org/10.15446/profile.v25n2.103146.
This qualitative study explores how a group of preservice teachers make sense of task-based language teaching principles and characteristics, especially amidst remote instruction. We draw on the analysis of 13 preservice teachers’ lesson plans and teaching guides as they transitioned from in-person to remote instruction during the COVID-19 pandemic. An analysis of the lesson plans using task-based language teaching principles as a framework revealed that preservice teachers implemented principles differently during in-person and remote teaching. Interestingly, the use of the principles sometimes contrasts with what the participants report in their reflections. We discuss the challenges English as a foreign language teachers face when adapting methods such as task-based language teaching to the demands of new teaching contexts.
