Ms Melissa Evangelidi is an EFL teacher conducting a research for her dissertation. All EFL colleagues, either working in the public or in the private sector, are kindly requested to assist. Here is her letter inviting us all to participate (it really does not take more than 10 minutes to fill the questionnaire in!):
Dear English Language Teacher,
I am conducting an Action Research study into the effects of implementing project-based learning with Greek young / teenage EFL learners for my dissertation for a Master’s degree in TESOL from Aston University, UK. As part of this research I am very interested in finding out about teachers’ views and experiences of project work in Greek ELT classrooms in both state and private (frontistiria) settings. (The term ‘project’ for this study is being used to refer to a number of activities related to a central topic and not a single task in a course book under the label ‘project’.)
I would like to invite you to complete this questionnaire, which should take you about 10 minutes.
Your answers are completely confidential and will only be used in summaries.
You will need to complete the following questionnaire electronically, save it temporarily on your PC and send as an email attachment to the following address: mevangelidi@yahoo.gr
To mark your answers for closed questions, please highlight the appropriate box as in the following example:
Do you use projects in your teaching practice?

For open answers, type directly into the spaces provided in the document.
Your opinions and experiences are very important to me. Thank you for your time and cooperation.
Kind regards,
Melissa Evangelidi
