Summary
This book examines the concept of interculturality in English Language Teaching (ELT), using examples from diverse international and educational settings to demonstrate different approaches. Increased contact between multilingual speakers from different cultural backgrounds means that linguistic and intercultural competence must be taught hand in hand, and the approaches featured here will: encourage learners to develop intercultural sensitivity and a critical intercultural attitude; mitigate the limitations of textbooks and extend the learning to global issues, intercultural citizenship, and media literacy; show the potential of telecollaboration and popular culture as pedagogical resources; and demonstrate the value of interculturality in English as lingua franca situations and English for Academic Purposes. The chapters feature empirical studies from around the world, and include questions for reflection and recommended reading so that readers can engage more closely with key concepts, compare and adapt the practices most relevant to them. This book contributes to the literature on (inter)cultural pedagogy, English as a lingua franca, language pedagogy, and teacher professional development, and will be an invaluable tool for English language teachers, teacher trainers and educators seeking to enrich their practice. It will also be of interest to students and scholars of Applied Linguistics, especially language education. Mabel Victoria is a Lecturer at Edinburgh Napier University, UK. Her research interests are interdisciplinary from latrinalia to linguistic landscapes to dark tourism, to classroom humour, to intercultural communication and English as a lingua franca. She has published in international journals like The ELT Journal, The Language Learning Journal and Globalisation, Societies and Education. Chittima Sangiamchit is a Lecturer at University of the Thai Chamber of Commerce, Bangkok, Thailand. She has published and presented internationally on English as a Lingua Franca (ELF), online intercultural communication, English language teaching and English as a medium of instruction. Her recent work involves transcultural communication in a social network community.
