The model of English that should be used in classrooms has long
been a subject of debate. World Englishes, Implications for
International Communication and English Language Teaching, (with an
accompanying audio CD) describes selected varieties of World
Englishes, and discusses the advantages and disadvantages of
selecting a particular variety from the point of view of both
teachers and learners. It aims to examine and re-evaluate concepts
such as 'standard', 'variety', 'native speaker' and 'non-native
speaker', and to validate the role played by multilingual and
multicultural English language teachers, arguing that context and
learner needs should determine the variety to be taught. World
Englishes was shortlisted for the 2008 British Council Innovations
Awards.
