This text introduces a framework for teaching English as an International Language (EIL) in which needs analysis, pedagogical principles, and assessment are integrated. The need for decisions to be based on the learning and teaching needs of each specific EIL context is emphasized.
English today is a global language embedded in a great variety of social contexts, resulting in linguistic and pedagogical variation. Taking a new look at the teaching and assessing of English as an international language (EIL), this text highlights overarching principles and provides specific strategies for responding to questions and challenges posed by the changing demographics of English language learners and users around the world.
