Horizontes 1 collects together accounts of the teacher-research journeys of a number of teachers of English as a foreign language in Latin America. The volume includes a brief introduction to action research, six chapters authored by Latin American teachers, and a reflective account of an innovative teacher-research conference held in Santiago de Chile in 2016. The six chapters address key topics such as supporting learners’ language development through a genre based approach, blended learning, curricular innovation in technical schools, written feedback, teacher reflection and collaboration, and formfocused communicative activities for primary school learners.
