Glass ceiling as a limit for learning and self-development
Original language description
This theoretical paper explores the 'glass ceiling' concept in education, defined as the plateau learners reach in their development, with language learning used as an example. It argues that traditional language teaching methods, with their reliance on textbooks, teacher-led instruction, and a focus on grammar and vocabulary, can contribute to this plateau by overlooking individual student progress and personal development. The study examines how the school and classroom environment, including pedagogical approaches like creating a safe learning space, providing feedback, and incorporating peer assessment, can influence this phenomenon. Using language learning as a primary example, the paper analyses the factors contributing to the glass ceiling effect and concludes with practical recommendations for teachers to address this challenge and foster student growth.
