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.
