In This Issue

With this issue, we welcome Tom Delaney as co-Editor with many thanks to Byrne Brewerton for serving in that position previously. This issue of ORTESOL Journal covers a range of topics including teacher education, using online tools, and nuts and bolts teaching tips. We start off with Carmen Caceda’s study of the beliefs of preservice ESOL teachers. The study is encouraging because, although some teacher candidates were found to hold incorrect beliefs about the characteristics of their future ELL students, Caceda found that these future teachers’ beliefs became both more accurate and more positive after training.
