JALT2019—Teacher Efficacy, Learner Agency
It is a pleasure to present the 2019 JALT Postconference Publication: Teacher Efficacy, Learner Agency. The papers published in the PCP take up a varied range of topics and issues related to language education in Japan and Asia. This year’s edition also provides an index of the breadth and depth of interest shown by the EFL professionals who have presented at the JALT International Conference
The PCP is made possible by the contributions of many individuals, starting with the authors themselves, who, besides making presentations at the conference and then writing papers based on them, also submit to a rigorous process of review and editing in order to prepare their work for publication. We also would like to thank the teams that have assisted with this process, including the reviewers who evaluated the submissions, content editors who worked with authors on revisions, and copy editors who proofread and checked manuscripts for final publication. Not only did many of these contributors go above and beyond what was expected of them, many also contributed in more than one area. Their dedication and professionalism is always much appreciated.
Finally, we would like to thank our readers, as the excellent work represented here would have little meaning without an interested audience to carry on the discussion. We hope that all of you, contributors and readers alike, will return for future conferences and issues of the PCP.
—Peter Clements, Aleda Krause, and Reginald Gentry
