Post-Colonial Pedagogical Issues: Strategies, Theories and Practices in English Language Teaching

Binod Mishra (Editor) Prashant Mishra (Editor)

Synopsis

English language has expanded in an unprecedented manner over the last few decades and has now acquired the status of a global language. The L2 users of English have outnumbered its (LI) native speakers. English is now being used in almost all the domains of knowledge and has occupied more space on the web world than the rest of the languages of the world. Consequently, the greater demand of learning English to gain the economic prospects and lucrative jobs emerging out of the phenomenon of globalization is being felt everyday. However, the methods and the materials used for teaching English are still the old colonial ones, which fail to produce expected results.
