چکیده مقاله:
In recent years, online education has become a significant part of teachers’ professional career. Moreover, it has been argued that contexts of teaching are significantly influential in English for Academic Purposes (EAP) teachers’ work. Despite these points, little research has examined EAP teachers’ identity construction in online contexts. The present study addressed this gap by exploring the impacts of online education on ۲۰ Iranian EAP teachers’ identity construction. The participants were interviewed and thematic analysis was conducted to analyze the data. The findings revealed that online education influenced the teachers’ personal, pedagogical, and social identities. More specifically, it was found that the teachers could reconstruct their identities in light of the challenges and affordances of online teaching, and adopted new identities that featured concerns with both their EAP and educator responsibilities. These findings are then discussed and implications for teacher educators are offered so that they could effectively help EAP teachers construct their identities in online settings.
