English - A Changing Medium for Education: New Perspectives on Language and Education


en Limba Engleză Paperback – 24 iul 2012

In this volume a range of authors from different international contexts argue that the notion of communicative competence in English, hitherto largely referenced to metropolitan native-speaker norms, has to be expanded to take account of diverse contexts of use for a variety of purposes. It also discusses the popular belief that language and literacy should simply be regarded as a technical 'skill' which confers universal benefits and that it should be replaced with a social practice view that recognises situated variations and diversity. This volume, we believe, provides a reference point for extended research and practice in these areas that will be of interest to wide range of people engaged in language and literacy education.

Descriere

The widespread use of English as an International Language has given rise to questions such as what counts as 'Standard English' and 'literacy'. This book provides a scholarly and research-based discussion on how English in education can be (re)conceptualized and understood in light of the dynamic and changing nature of English.
