| Summary: | Action research has proven itself an effective form of professional development for
language teachers. This article sets out to show this potential by looking at current
developments in action research in the context of language teacher education in
Austria. The article is divided into three parts: 1) prevailing trends and develop-
ments in action research will be expounded; 2) we examine the role of interna-
tional networks in developing and implementing action research programmes for
language teachers in Austria; 3) The final part describes the dynamic development
of action-research-based post-graduate courses run by the University of Klagen-
furt since the 1980’s and discusses pre-conditions for a sustainable form of action
research-based language teacher education.
