Over the course of two centuries (since 1807), the Czech lands have seen fundamental changes in the paradigm of special L1 didactics for pupils with vision impairments (hereinafter the VI). The ...individual didactic transformations often found theoretical backgrounds in special education approaches simultaneously designed across Europe (especially in Austria, England, former Yugoslavia, Italy, Hungary, Russia, etc.) and accentuated respect for the special teaching requirements of pupils with VI. The embrace of specific European approaches usually depended on the general (especially political and social) context of the period, which also had an impact on the aims and tasks of special language teaching. The paper defines the historically shaped aims of L1 teaching for pupils with VI and contextualizes them in order to understand the current aims.
Das Thema der Ausbildung von Lehrenden wurde im DaF-Forschungsfeld, so Legutke und Schart (2016: 9), lange vernachlässigt. Es ist jedoch festzustellen, dass sich dies in letzter Zeit geändert hat. ...Angesichts des wachsenden Interesses seitens der Forschung und Praxis (ebd.) im Bereich der fremdsprachendidaktischen Professionsbildung widmet sich dieser Beitrag sowohl den Möglichkeiten als auch den Engpässen der subjektiven Professionsbildung von Studentinnen und Studenten im Studiengang „Sprach- und Literaturwissenschaft Portugiesisch-Deutsch“ in Rio de Janeiro.
Teacher training programmes have often ignored the new multilingual paradigm and, consequently, educators may hold some misconceptions about how additional languages are learnt and should be taught ...in multilingual contexts. A number of recent studies have investigated language teachers' beliefs regarding multilingual education Arocena-Egaña, E., Cenoz, J., & Gorter, D. (2015). Teachers' beliefs in multilingual education in the Basque country and in Friesland. Journal of Immersion and Content-Based Language Education, 3(2), 169-193; De Angelis, G. (2011). Teachers' beliefs about the role of prior language knowledge in learning and how these influence teaching practices. International Journal of Multilingualism, 8(3), 216-234; Griva, E., & Chostelidou, D. (2012). Multilingual competence development in the Greek educational system: FL teachers' beliefs and attitudes. International Journal of Multilingualism, 9(3), 257-271; Haukås, Å. (2016). Teacher's beliefs about multilingualism and a multilingual pedagogical approach. International Journal of Multilingualism, 13(1), 1-18; Mitits, L. (2018). Multilingual students in Greek school: teachers' views and teaching practices. Journal of education and e-learning research, 5(1), 28-36. Otwinowska, A. (2014). Does multilingualism influence plurilingual awareness of Polish teachers of English? International Journal of Multilingualism, 11(1), 97-119. Unlike this extant literature, the current paper focuses not on language teachers, but on a sample of 121 subject teachers-to-be. More specifically, it aims to explore preschool and primary prospective teachers' beliefs about the learning and teaching of English as an L3 in the Valencian Community. The main data collection tool was a questionnaire, partially based on Griva, E., & Chostelidou, D. (2012). Multilingual competence development in the Greek educational system: FL teachers' beliefs and attitudes. International Journal of Multilingualism, 9(3), 257-271 semi-structured interviews. This questionnaire was implemented as a pretest and as a posttest in order to analyse the effect of instruction for multilingual education on subject teachers' beliefs. Results point to the effectiveness of initial teacher training on tertiary/additional language teaching. However, they also confirm the persistence of some monolingual views concerning key issues, such as the younger-the better myth, as already highlighted in previous studies conducted in similar multilingual contexts (see Arocena-Egaña, E., Cenoz, J., & Gorter, D. (2015). Teachers' beliefs in multilingual education in the Basque country and in Friesland. Journal of Immersion and Content-Based Language Education, 3(2), 169-193.
