Thus, this book provides textbook publishers and English language teacher trainees, teachers, academicians and practitioners with the current theoretical and practical directions in developing, designing, and implementing materials to enhance foreign language learning and use.

Book excerpt: In the dynamic of constantly evolving field of foreign language instruction, marked by continuous advancements and growing difficulties, the need for innovation, teamwork, and adaptation becomes increasingly apparent. When educators, politicians, and scholars study language education, they realize that solving current problems demands a complete and all-encompassing strategy. Effective foreign language instruction requires a deep understanding of teaching methods, proficiency in modern teaching techniques, keeping up with technological advancements, recognizing cultural influences, and understanding the wide-ranging effects of policy decisions. Within this complex and diverse setting, educators have the responsibility of not only teaching language skills but also creating a conducive atmosphere that promotes creativity and facilitates cooperation. Policy Development, Curriculum Design, and Administration of Language Education unites a wide range of voices, viewpoints, and research methods to illuminate the complex difficulties encountered by language educators. The book provides insights that are applicable to different educational policies, and ongoing professional development for language instructors. Covering topics such as collaborative writing, linguistically responsive teachers, and second language teaching, this book is an excellent resource for scholars, researchers, language instructors, pre-service teachers, policymakers, administrators, and more.

This book was released on 2023-04-24 with total page 400 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In one of the contributions to this edited volume an interviewee argues that "English is power". For researchers in the field of English Studies this raises the questions of where the power of English resides and which types and practices of power are implied in the uses of English. Linguists, scholars of literature and culture, and language educators address aspects of these questions in a wide range of contributions. The book shows that the power of English can oscillate between empowerment and subjection, on the one hand enabling humans to develop manifold capabilities and on the other constraining their scope of action and reflection. In this edited volume, a case is made for self-critical English Studies to be dialogic, empowering and power-critical in approach.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book sets out duoethnography as a method of research, reflective practice and as a pedagogical approach in English Language Teaching (ELT). The book provides an introduction to the history of duoethnography and lays out its theoretical foundations. The chapters then address duoethnography as a research method which can be used to explore critical and personal issues among ELT teachers, discuss how duoethnography as a reflective practice can aid teachers in understanding themselves, their colleagues or their context, and demonstrate how duoethnography can be used as a pedagogical tool in ELT classrooms. The chapters are a range of duoethnographies from established and emerging researchers and teachers, which explore the interplay between cultural discourses and life histories with a focus on ELT in Japan.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Recent trends in English Language Teaching (ELT) research necessitates the study of course books and instructional materials from various perspectives including but not limited to their cultural, social, and psychological qualities and effects (Kramsch 2000). Age, social class, and gender, as represented in course books are studied because teachers and students are exposed to many words and images effecting their knowledge, perceptions and world views. In this critical research study, visual materials in two ELT course books are studied by using the insight and perspective derived from Cunningsworth (1995) who had previously examined how age, social class, and gender were represented in ELT course books. It is believed that by focusing on how characters are depicted, possible injustice and imbalance these visual materials may transmit and strengthen stereotypical thinking in students' mindsets will be articulated, verbalized, and eventually solutions will be suggested. Findings revealed that many social imbalances were detectable in these visual materials both quantitatively and qualitatively. (Contains 4 tables.)

This book was released on 2010 with total page 82 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Particularly in times of a crisis, an employee-led training (ELT) system is a cost-efficient way to give employees the further education they deserve and need to stay on top of things, and to increase their ability to be efficient and effective. An ELT system accrues very few costs while having copious benefits, such as motivated, broadly positioned employees who understand the procedures and interfaces in the company and can thus work much more efficiently, while being enabled to network, cooperate, and communicate on a new level. The employees will identify with the organization and the solidarity between headquarters and branch offices will enhance tremendously. The seminars are well targeted and easy to understand for the employees, as a colleague, who knows exactly which lingo and examples to use, holds them. The knowledge transferred is practical and the employees can implement it into their daily work immediately. The organization itself not only becomes transparent towards its employees, it also sets a new standard by pointing out that employer-employee work relationships can go beyond the maliciously obedient work that is rewarded with a pay-check at the end of the month. All parties involved benefit from the ELT system and it requires a minimal amount of administration work, which the personnel development within the HR department covers. The extra work that has to be conducted by the in-house trainers is factually compensated by their chance to distinguish themselves in the organization and to further their work portfolio. They become powerful multipliers. This study sheds light on the ELT system using the practical example of Stage Entertainment Germany, while providing a process description, describing assets and drawbacks, as well as the implementation of the resulting improvements in the new business year. It can be used as a guide to implement an ELT system at a similar organization.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Routledge Handbook of English Language Teaching is the definitive reference volume for postgraduate and advanced undergraduate students of Applied Linguistics, ELT/TESOL, and Language Teacher Education, and for ELT professionals engaged in in-service teacher development and/or undertaking academic study. Progressing from ‘broader’ contextual issues to a ‘narrower’ focus on classrooms and classroom discourse, the volume’s inter-related themes focus on: ELT in the world: contexts and goals planning and organising ELT: curriculum, resources and settings methods and methodology: perspectives and practices second language learning and learners teaching language: knowledge, skills and pedagogy understanding the language classroom. The Handbook’s 39 chapters are written by leading figures in ELT from around the world. Mindful of the diverse pedagogical, institutional and social contexts for ELT, they convincingly present the key issues, areas of debate and dispute, and likely future developments in ELT from an applied linguistics perspective. Throughout the volume, readers are encouraged to develop their own thinking and practice in contextually appropriate ways, assisted by discussion questions and suggestions for further reading that accompany every chapter.

Download or read book Critical Views on Teaching and Learning English Around the Globe written by José Aldemar Álvarez V. and published by IAP. This book was released on 2016-01-01 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume takes a critical look at teaching and learning English across the globe. Its aim is to fill a gap in the literature created by the omission of the voices of those engaged in the everyday practice of teaching and learning English; those of students, teachers, and specialists. Three unique characteristics give this book broad appeal. They include - its inclusion of the perspectives and experiences of students and educators involved in the everyday practice of English language teaching and learning - its inclusion of the experiences of students and educators in both core and non-core English-speaking countries - its basis on original, qualitative studies conducted by scholars in different parts of the world including Europe, the Middle East, Asia, and the Americas Of particular interest to applied linguists, scholars from diverse fields such as English as a Foreign/Second Language, English as an International Language, anthropology and education, English education, sociolinguistics, and bilingual education will also find value in this book. Written in accessible language, it can be used in such courses as Applied Linguistics, Second Language Classroom Contexts, Bilingualism and Multilingualism, English Around the World, Research Methodologies in Second Language Acquisition, and Research in Second Language Pedagogical Contexts. In addition, by focusing on presenting research experiences that adopt several epistemological and theoretical approaches, the book provides teachers of research with a great tool to examine varied applications of qualitative methods, data collection, and analytic techniques. Thus it could also be used for courses in Field Research and Qualitative Methods. ENDORSEMENT: “As a scholar and educator who has consistently explored the social implications of the teaching and learning of English, I applaud this book’s concern with documenting the previously unheard voices of language learners and teachers around the world. The book is unique in the manner in which it focuses on the everyday experiences of marginalized English teachers and learners in various contexts around the globe. It also is unique in the manner in which it brings together researchers, teachers and learners to qualitatively investigate a great diversity of local language learning contexts. This book is a must read for anyone concerned with the current spread of English and its implications for individuals not typically foregrounded in language learning and teaching research.” — Dr. Sandra Lee McKay, Professor Emeritus, San Francisco State University, USA

Download or read book Teacher Agency and Policy Response in English Language Teaching written by Patrick C. L. Ng and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-08-05 with total page 217 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The role of English in the global arena has prompted official language-in-education policy makers to adopt language education policies to enable its citizens to be proficient in English and to access knowledge. Local educational contexts in different countries have implemented English education in their own ways with different pedagogical goals, motivations, features and pedagogies. While much of the research cited in English language planning policy has focused on macro level language policy and planning, there is an increasing interest in micro planning, in particular teacher agency in policy response. Individual teacher agency is a multifaceted amalgam, not only of teachers’ individual histories, professional training, personal values and instructional beliefs, but also of how these interact with local interpretations and appropriations of policy. Teacher Agency and Policy Response in English Language Teaching examines the agency of the teacher in negotiating educational reforms and policy changes at the local and national levels. Chapters in the book include: English language teaching in China: teacher agency in response to curricular innovations Incorporating academic skills into EFL curriculum: teacher agency in response to global mobility challenge Teacher agency, the native/nonnative dichotomy, and "English Classes in English" in Japanese high Schools Teacher-designed high stakes English language testing: washback and impact This book will appeal to researcher across all sectors of education, in particular key stakeholders in curriculum and language planning. Those interested in the latest development of English language teaching will also find this book a valuable resource.

This book was released on 2021-05-10 with total page 230 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book focuses on ethical and methodological issues faced by researchers working with young language learners in formal school contexts. It uncovers and explicitly discusses a range of ethical dilemmas, challenges and experiences that researchers have encountered and grappled with, in studies of all kinds from large scale, experimental studies to ethnographic studies focused on just a handful of children. The chapters are written by researchers working with children in different classroom contexts around the world and highlight how ethical dilemmas and tensions take on a complex form in child-focused research, requiring researchers to pay particular attention to the social and cultural norms of the different communities within which children are educated as well as their school-based experiences. The book comprises three sections, with the first part focused on involving children as active participants in research; part two on ethical challenges in multilingual contexts and part three on links between teacher education and researching children. The book includes a critical discussion of the opportunities and challenges associated with applying the UNCRC (1989) document in second language research with children which will be of use to any researcher working in this area.
