In this talk, first of all, I will be sharing my experiences of working with primary English teachers in India who tried to engage their learners as co-researchers in their classrooms. I will share some practical examples of tasks and activities that have worked well in these classrooms as well as the teachers' and the children’s reflections about their experiences.
Then I will also reflect on my experiences of working with children as researchers. In this study, children worked on a questionnaire survey exploring topics of their own interest.
I will discuss both benefits and challenges of engaging children as co-researchers and researchers in English language classrooms and beyond.
