N2  - "Language is a vital commodity in the globalized world. The services- and information-based economy makes increasing demands on workers' language skills; new technologies and media change the cultural landscape; migration produces more linguistically diverse populations worldwide. These developments change the conditions in which languages are learned and taught. 'Globalization and Language Teaching' considers the issues globalization raises for second language learning and teaching. Drawing together various strands in the globalization debate, this rich collection combines theory with the case studies, exploring concerns that range from literacy to bilingualism and form identity to the internet. This is an invaluable resource for anyone involved in language teaching or with an interest in globalization." (Book Cover)
