Beschreibung

English as a Lingua Franca (ELF) has emerged in response to the growing role of English as a global means of communication among speakers from diverse linguistic and cultural backgrounds. Unlike traditional models, ELF emphasizes the practical and adaptive use of English in multilingual and intercultural contexts. This shift has important implications for educational curricula, teacher education programs, and communication practices. In curricula, ELF encourages the inclusion of diverse English varieties and intercultural competence. In teacher education, it challenges educators to reconsider language standards, teaching methodologies, and learner needs in globalized settings. The study of communication highlights how English users negotiate meaning, identity, and cultural differences in real-world interactions. Together, these perspectives contribute to a more inclusive and realistic understanding of English language teaching and use. English as a Lingua Franca in Curricula, Teacher Education, and Communication in Context explores how English functions as a global means of communication among speakers from different linguistic and cultural backgrounds, and how this reality influences language teaching and learning. It examines the implications of English as a Lingua Franca for curriculum design, teacher education, and communication practices, with a focus on intercultural competence, linguistic diversity, and effective communication in multilingual contexts. This book covers topics such as multicultural education, translanguaging, and visual communication, and is a useful resource for educators, academicians, researchers, and scientists.
