Book excerpt: As the English language has spread around the globe and the English teaching industry has expanded, so interest in the theory behind the methods of teaching and curiosity regarding innovative classroom techniques have also grown. Recently, advances in technology have had a major impact on the way teachers at all levels work, as has the greater interest in the learner as an individual. This book provides detailed insight into both of these forces. Contemporary English Language Teaching and Research will appeal both to researchers in the field, since it contains a number of new and exciting studies, as well as reflections on the research process itself, and to language teachers, both those practising and those in training, who wish to keep abreast of the latest developments in teaching techniques and understanding of learners. The book provides a snapshot of today’s research environment in the field of teaching and learning English as a foreign language. It brings together work from established academics and young researchers, with a wide variety of classroom teaching experience, and an equally wide range of perspectives and priorities.

Book excerpt: Amidst the transformative tides reshaping the realm of English language education, educators, researchers, and practitioners grapple with a myriad of contemporary challenges. In recent years, the landscape of teaching and learning English as a second or foreign language (L2) has undergone a seismic shift, prompting a reevaluation of established practices. The dynamics of L2 education now face burgeoning issues such as fluctuating motivation levels among learners, evolving engagement dynamics in classrooms, and the expanding influence of technological advancements, particularly the pervasive use of computer-mediated communication, altering the traditional boundaries of language acquisition. The urgency to address these multifaceted concerns serves as the impetus for Exploring Contemporary English Language Education Practices, an edited book that unravels the complexities of the present-day L2 education panorama. This comprehensive volume, encapsulated by the title Exploring Contemporary English Language Education Practices, is not just a compilation of insights; it is a roadmap for navigating the intricate terrain of modern language education. The chapters within this book delve deep into the intricate fabric of second language motivation, learner engagement, emotional dimensions in language learning, classroom assessment strategies, corrective feedback methodologies, and the symbiotic relationship between technology and language acquisition.

Book excerpt: This engaging volume on English as an Additional Language (EAL), argues persuasively for the importance of critical participatory pedagogies that embrace multilingualism and multimodality in the field of TESOL. It highlights the role of the TESOL profession in teaching for social justice and advocacy and explores how critical participatory pedagogies translate into English language teaching and teacher education around the world. Bringing together diverse scholars in the field and practicing English language teachers, editors Polina Vinogradova and Joan Kang Shin present 10 thematically organized units that demonstrate that language teaching pedagogy must be embedded in the larger sociocultural contexts of teaching and learning to be successful. Each unit covers one pedagogical approach and includes three case studies to illustrate how English language teachers across the world implement these approaches in their classrooms. The chapters are supplemented by discussion questions and a range of practical sources for further exploration. Addressing established and emerging areas of TESOL, topics covered include: Critical and postmethod pedagogies Translingualism Digital literacy and multiliteracies Culturally responsive pedagogy Advocacy Featuring educators implementing innovative approaches in primary, secondary, and tertiary contexts across borders, Contemporary Foundations for Teaching English as an Additional Language is an ideal text for methods and foundational courses in TESOL and will appeal to in-service and preservice English language teachers as well as students and teacher educators in TESOL and applied linguistics.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents empirical research on teaching, learning and assessment, and teacher development practices in Pakistan. Despite extensive academic research conducted in Pakistan over the last decade, there is a dearth of internationally published literature on English language teaching in the country. This book covers current research priorities and initiatives concerning English language teaching, learning and assessment, empirical developments, and major professional development initiatives, both in Pakistan and involving the work of Pakistani scholars based in abroad. It highlights the impacts that development efforts are having in the ELT world in Pakistan. The respective chapters cover a diverse range of topics, including: continuous professional development (CPD), identity construction, English language policy, curriculum development, and innovative ELT approaches and methodologies used in Pakistan. This volume provides valuable insights for TESOL and applied linguistics scholars and practitioners working in the field of ELT, both in Pakistan and elsewhere in the globalized world.
