Abstract

In the ever-changing educational environment, the application of information and communication technology (ICT) continues to emerge as an urgent trend for teacher educators in all subject areas. This has never been more so the case until the Covid-19 crisis, which has seen a massive push for online learning as students, teachers, and school communities everywhere have been forced to adapt to unprecedented challenges as a result of the pandemic. Recent studies reveal that in-service K-12 English as a foreign language (EFL) teachers are facing a pedagogical problem of how to use ICT to teach their students in Vietnam. Consequently, preparing in-service teachers for ICT skills in the “new norm” due to the global pandemic is urgently needed. This paper attempts to explore effective pedagogical strategies for ICT-related EFL teacher professional development (PD) in the current Vietnamese education context. It aims to identify which factors should be taken into account when an ICT-related teacher training program is implemented. Qualitative-oriented research methods using meta-synthesis and document review were employed in this study, revealing five important factors that are explored in this paper. The study is significant in providing more insights into what effective practice-oriented pedagogical strategies are needed to facilitate teachers to enhance their ICT-related skills for K-12 EFL teachers in Vietnam. It is also anticipated that the findings will help bridge the gap between theory and practice of ICT-related teacher PD in Vietnam, and in countries where there are contextual similarities.
