Abstract | While previous studies in the literature may have used the concept of a community of practice (CoP) to investigate its role for teachers' professional development, this study identifies the role of a teachers' CoP in navigating the challenges in online/ remote teaching faced by six teachers of English as a foreign language (EFL) in a university in Thailand during the COVID19 pandemic. This study employed a purposive-convenience sampling method with an individual online interview to gather qualitative data. Findings revealed that although teacher-participants pointed out the lack of students' interaction, lack of time to do assessment and feedback, and the lack of students' concentration in online teaching, they greatly acknowledged the role of the teachers' CoP in navigating the demands and challenges of online teaching during the pandemic. Some of the ascribed roles of the teachers' CoP in online teaching include; a support group, a source of solutions to online teaching issues, and a learning community. Implications are discussed and suggestions for future studies are offered. (As Provided). |
