Teacher Learning and Change: Consistency between Personal Theories and Behaviours
Öz
The purpose of the research reported here is to discuss teachers’ learning and perceptional
change/s of ELT teachers and to be able to find out the consistency between conceptual and
behavioural changes of teachers from the view of constructivist approach. The relationships of
personal theories (constructs) and theories in action (behaviours) will be dealt with. Furthermore, the
content and structural changes of constructs between the beginning and end of the study will be
discussed. The nature of the constructs studied here will be presented through the use of multiple data
sources-but with special reference to repertory grid data-so that a more comprehensive understanding
of the participant’s thinking system is possible. We will exemplify the change by considering the
constructs of an ELT teacher. In this study, we have presented the participant’s personal theories
deeply and from various perspectives during an in-service teacher development program.
