2018–19: Exploring the Territory
摘要
The quality and volume of research and publication in ELT display exponential growth due to the ways in which teachers and stakeholders have started to view the ELT classroom. This increase in interest can also be the result of the dilution of interdisciplinary borders. The acceptance and incorporation of the use of technology is no longer a burning question—during these years the focus is on the ways in which these can be harnessed for maximum impact and efficacy. The struggle with the perception of English as an alien tongue now stands suspended in the immersive and global vat of World Englishes. The impact of multiple influences from diverse fields brings about a shift towards examining and understanding the micro facets of the ELT panorama.
