Abstract
This chapter introduces two ways for conceptualizing the relationship between conversation analysis (CA) and language teacher education (LTE): CA on LTE and CA for LTE, where CA is used either (1) as a methodology to investigate the work of LTE (applied CA) or (2) as a resource for reshaping LTE (interventionist CA). After a review of CA scholarship that illuminates the complexities of LTE, mostly in the context of post-observation meetings (CA on LTE), the bulk of the chapter documents how CA has played a pivotal role in respecifying language teaching targets and recalibrating language teacher practices (CA for LTE). The chapter concludes by outlining such future directions as synergizing different CA-informed teacher development frameworks and documenting the impact of adopting such frameworks.
