Opis

From Cameroon to Turkey through Jordan, this short volume illuminates the discrepancy between stated language teaching norms and real-life language use in non-native settings. It underscores the limitations of teaching materials, styles, and methods with regard to learners' communication needs, and provides well-matched answers to foreign language classroom problems.This book will be of interest to language teachers and researchers who will gain an insight into the challenges of the foreign language class in different non-native milieus, and therefore enrich their teaching competence. Educational policy makers can also use it as a guide for designing contextually appropriate curricula and materials.
