Abstract

Acquisition of English as an added language is a worldwide challenge, and although a well-recognised educational need in a diversity of contexts, learners’ success largely depends on the quality of pedagogy and extent of reform away from the traditional method. Moreover, while learning environments differ in opportunities to foster English language learning, research continues to highlight how a multiplicity of issues may negatively impact learners’ success in spite of the advantages of new digital communication technologies and availability of teacher professional learning. In response to this, Stimulating Languages Learning: Global Perspectives and Community Engagement, as a research book, examines current shifts in the field, making connections and acknowledging identified strengths and innovative practices, and solutions, at both the local and global level. By drawing upon a range of exemplars from Australia, Indonesia, the Philippines, Senegal, South Korea, and Vietnam, it illuminates related issues, such as pre-service teacher education, refugee learners’ need for English for work, and the importance of first language maintenance. In highlighting the importance of curriculum, learner attributes and pedagogical approaches, learning materials and testing, along with opportunities for language learning outside the classroom, this publication is ideal for professionals involved in TESOL and teaching English as a Foreign language and its improvement.
