Contributions on any aspect of English language teacher education and development in the form of articles, reports, work-in-progress and letters or comments on previously published articles are welcome. As far as possible they should conform to the guidelines which follow. Contributors are asked to provide sufficient context/background for an international readership and to highlight the wider, not just local relevance of their article. ELTED Journal does not impose any copyright on articles published, which may appear subsequently elsewhere in revised form. We do, though, request acknowledgment of first place of publication.
We publish one volume per year, towards the end of the year. However, articles can be submitted at any time, and, if accepted, will be published online as 'Advance online publication' soon after acceptance.
Posner, G. (1985). Field experience. Longman.
