About this title

Synopsis

Exploring critical developments and challenges in English Language Teaching (ELT) within Asian contexts, this edited volume offers insights into material adaptation, evaluation, innovations, and the role of English language materials towards achieving the sustainable development goals (SDGs).

With contributions from experts in Indonesia, Malaysia, Iran, Thailand, Bangladesh, and China, this volume serves as a key resource for understanding the evolving landscape of ELT materials in a diverse cultural setting. Filling a critical gap in the global discourse on ELT materials which is currently rooted in Western perspectives, the book examines current trends and issues in ELT materials specifically within South and Southeast Asia. Chapters provide a platform to highlight localised approaches to material development, explore the intersection of global standards and local contexts, and identify innovative practices that can inform the global ELT community. Ultimately, the book fosters dialogue between regional and global stakeholders in the field.

Contributing to a more inclusive understanding of ELT material development, this volume is a key reference for academics, scholars, and researchers in the field of ELT design and development, English Medium Instruction, Asian Education as well as bilingualism. Educators and curriculum designers engaged in English as a Second or Foreign Language (ESL/EFL) contexts will also benefit from this volume.

Store Description

We first started out as ?The Paperback Exchange,? a chain of physical bookstores where we would part exchange your beloved books for new stories to transport you to faraway places. However, as shopping started to evolve to online shops and marketplaces, we bid our stores goodbye to become ?PBShop.? This transition has only allowed us to blossom as we now ship thousands of titles to book lovers across the globe. We pride ourselves in being a community of local book lovers which allows our passion and devotion to shine in everything we do. In 2020 we not only celebrated our 20th birthday but our 1st birthday as being completely employee owned after becoming an E.O.T in September 2019. We are proud to be different and embrace standing apart on a book mountain by working from a virtual inventory which allows us to provide thousands of books that may be difficult to get for your bookshelf or your studies. Working with a number of different suppliers allows us to explore other avenues such as puzzles, sheet music and even stationery so we really do have something for everyone. Life is about being versatile in all realms of existence. If this is your first visit or you are a returning customer, we would like to welcome you to the PBShop family, for there is no friend as loyal as a book.
