Abstract

This chapter reports designing, implementing, and evaluating a Leadership and Management in ELT course based on an andragogical approach for adult learners in the teacher education department of a state university in Turkey. Participants were seven adult learners aged 28-35 undertaking the course, which lasted 14 weeks with 3 hours of weekly teaching. The course was delivered online, and the course content included leadership and management theories and approaches using videos, books, and a collection of articles. Data were collected using qualitative data collection tools; participants were requested to produce reflective writings, keep a leadership portfolio, and respond to end-of-the-course evaluation. Content analysis of the data revealed that adopting an andragogical approach to teaching leadership and management in ELT has been highly useful in preparing the participants for the leadership and management working environment they were either concurrently involved in and/or had aspirations to be in their professional lives.
