Transforming into an ELF-aware Reflective Practitioner Through the ENRICH CPD Course: Insights from Greece (and beyond)

Abstract

This article aims at offering an insight into the ways in which ELF awareness was promoted through the Continuous Professional Development (CPD) Course which has been developed in the framework of the ENRICH Project. After describing the construct of ELF awareness, the content and structure of the Course is presented, highlighting the role of reflection and constructive dialogue in transforming into an ELF-aware teacher. Afterwards, indicative data coming from participants from Greece and other countries are discussed, with reference to the impact that the Course has had on them in terms of their professional development.
