Language Debates: Theory and Reality in Language Learning, Teaching and Research
No Customer Reviews
This book captures an urgent moment for language teaching and learning. At its core are a series of Debates concerning activism in languages education, gender stereotyping, the place of languages in the digital age and the work that languages - and that those who learn, teach and speak them - do in the world. Written by a range of researchers with real-life experience of working with languages, it acknowledges the history of language teaching, the current realities of language teaching and learning, and is bold in challenging established ideas and suggesting ways forward for reform and for policy. Ranging across disciplinary intersections, it sets languages and language learning at the heart of a consciously transformative set of goals for broader education in response to present lived experience and current social and demographic changes. 'Foreign' languages are an essential element in a super-diverse and multilingual world where new cultural roles, stances and responsibilities are needed. Engage with leading practitioners and researchers and stimulate your own curiosity about how the languages we use affect how we think and feel about ourselves, about other people, and about the world around us.
