Research Abstract

The major aim of this research project is (1) elucidating instructor's "heuristics", i.e. her/his decision-making strategies as s/he faces various classroom situations, and (2) putting the heuristics into practice for teacher training.
As the outcome of this project, various significant methodologies and viewpoints in English language teaching at early childhood were given and found, such as the COLT-Profiling method, concepts of "distance" and "density" of tasks and some instructors' heuristics.
