Abstract
This paper probes the potential of practitioner research (specifically Exploratory Practice) to contribute to theoretical and practical developments in quality learning outcomes in language teaching for a globalized world. It considers approaches to learning, teaching and researching in language classrooms in diverse situations, and examines the ways in which practitioner researchers have worked towards their goals of encouraging quality learning outcomes. It concludes that there is no ‘one solution for all’, arguing instead that the highest quality learning outcomes must focus on motivation, agency, active learning, self-efficacy and the desire to continue learning. Successful outcomes are then predicated on the co-production of knowledge with/by learners, teachers, and researchers as they explore their own praxis.
