As a consequence of a British Council data-gathering exercise we were both involved in – for the Directory of
UK ELT Research 2005-2010 (for more information, see: www.teachingenglish.org.uk/elt-research) – quite comprehensive information about ELT research publications, doctoral work and funded projects at British institutions became available for the first time. One aim of the project had always been not only to describe the current situation, but also to encourage evaluative discussion of the nature and state of ELT research in the UK. Accordingly, during the roundtable discussion we report on here participants were invited to reflect on a set of questions arising from the project, relating to the following overall concerns:
- Issues of scope / definition of ‘ELT research’
- The nature of UK ELT research
- Evaluation of the ‘current state’ of UK ELT research
- Improvement of the current situation
