It is evident that certain key features
are important in developing a PDP for
teachers involved in curriculum change.
Among these key features are that no one
element of a PDP will lead to satisfactory
involvement in curriculum change – any plan
must contain a range of elements as proposed
in this paper. Another element is the critical
importance of assuring teachers that
curriculum change does not necessarily mean
that they are not doing a good job under the
current circumstances and that the curriculum
change need not be based on a deficit model
of their current work. Rather, it is a different
approach to achieving their goal of effective
EFL teaching.
