Abstract
This thesis examines the perspectives of Indonesian English as a foreign language (EFL) teachers (IETs) on professional teaching standards in the context of teacher certification programs (PSG) in Indonesia. For its theoretical framework, it draws on literature on professional standards for teachers and on language teacher cognition. The standards movement in education (SME) which began in the United States of America (US) in the 1980s with the establishment of the National Board for Professional Teaching Standards (NBPTS) has influenced the development of professional teaching standards for and certification of teachers in many countries. Developed countries such as Australia and New Zealand, for instance, have developed their standards for languages, literacy, and English for Speakers of Other Languages (ESOL) teachers.
