In response to scarcity of research in this area, the present study describes an effort in incorporating instructional pragmatics into a teacher development course (Methods of Teaching ESL) in the U.S., and its students’ reactions to such endeavor. In the following, I discuss the context of the study, the curriculum and materials used for teacher development, the data collection procedure, and the analysis. This will be followed by our findings which demonstrate both the successes of the program and the challenges these graduate students (teacher learners) faced in teaching pragmatics to EFL learners through CMC as revealed in their own voices.
