’Tanggap, tiklo, tago’ (receive, fold, keep): Perceptions of best practice in ELT INSET
In-service teacher training (INSET) for English language teachers is an important but often relatively ineffective aspect of large-scale English language teaching (ELT) curriculum development. Based on a synthesis of findings from the ELT and non-ELT literature on the topic, this study therefore fi...
