Förbättrade beskrivningar från Syndetics:
This book provides educators and teacher trainees with a basis upon which to develop teaching and learning methodologies that accommodate the multicultural classroom. A number of new perspectives are scrutinised, among them English as an International Language, Mid-Atlantic English, and Euro-English. The book begins with a survey of the English language. Here, standard language ideologies and traditional teaching and learning practices, it is argued, are found to be obsolete because of the advent of Europeanisation and globalisation. Alternative language ideologies which reveal how conventional foreign-language teaching methodologies impede rather than promote the acquisition of intercultural competence are then investigated. Novel conceptualisations of language are presented which bring pluralism and multiculturalism centre-stage.
