The contributors interrogate innovative and recent thinking and broach controversies about the theoretical and practical considerations that underpin the implementation of effective Languages pedagogy in twenty-first-century classrooms. Crucially, \u003cem\u003eRethinking Languages Education\u003c\/em\u003e explores established understandings about language, culture and education to provide a more comprehensive and flexible understanding of Languages education that responds to local classrooms impacted by global and transnational change, and the politics of language, culture and identity.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eRethinking Languages Education focuses on questions about ways that we can develop farsighted and successful Languages education for diverse students in globalised contexts. The response to these questions is multi-layered, and takes into account the complex interactions between policy, curriculum and practice, as well as their contention and implementation. In doing so, this book addresses and integrates innovative perspectives of contemporary theory and pedagogy for Languages, TESOL and EAL\/D education. It includes diverse discussions around practice, and addresses issues of the dominance of prestige Languages programs for 'minority' and 'heritage' languages, as well as discussing controversies about the current provision of English and Languages programs around the world. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRuth Arber\u003c\/strong\u003e is Senior Lecturer at Deakin University, Melbourne, Australia, Co-Director of the Centre for Teaching and Learning Languages (CTaLL) and Director of the Masters of Education (TESOL).\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMichiko Weinmann\u003c\/strong\u003e is Senior Lecturer in Languages Education and Co-Director of the Centre for Teaching and Learning Languages (CTaLL) at Deakin University, Melbourne.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eJill Blackmore\u003c\/strong\u003e is an Alfred Deakin (University) Professor and the Founding Director of the Centre for Research in Educational Futures and Innovation, Deakin University.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 264\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.55 x 9.21 x 6.14 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIllustrated:\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e May 30, 2022\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47409343889586,"sku":"9780367569709","price":93.94,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0770\/3891\/1666\/files\/d38a3a4be72afb1e3a340959e354c4ba.webp?v=1778264049","url":"https:\/\/box.dadyminds.org\/products\/rethinking-languages-education-directions-challenges-and-innovations-paperback","provider":"DADYMINDS BOX","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
