Description
Research is the lifeblood of education development and in the Myanmar tertiary education
sector, it is more urgent than ever for teachers to engage in extensive research activities. An
understanding of ELT teachers’ views on research is an initial step in the effort to promote
their research engagement. With an aim to investigate Myanmar ELT teachers’ perspectives
on research, a questionnaire survey was conducted with the format developed on an
international baseline proposed by Borg (2009). The questionnaire comprising 10
scenarioswas administered to 146 ELT teachers serving at universities in Upper Myanmar.
Each situation in the questionnaire was to be identified as belonging to a research scenario or
not on a Likert-like scale of definitely research, probably research, definitely not research and
probably not research. Participant teachers were also asked to respond how often they were
research-engaged and state the reasons for their research engagement or non-engagement.
The result revealed that most ELT teachers considered a large-scale survey and statistical
data as research. Not having sufficient time and unfamiliarity with research principles and
methods were common issues for their lack of engagement in research. Appropriate measures
should be taken to address these issues with a view to promoting ELT teachers’ research
engagement for their professional development and overall development of ELT in Myanmar.
