The edited volume contributes to the comprehensive and inclusive understanding of the global ELT landscape in instructional settings within and across countries. It brings together language teachers, educators and researchers who use their experiences of shuttling across borders to reflect on the shaping of their pedagogical and research practices.
This edited volume contributes to the creation of a comprehensive and a more inclusive understanding of an increasingly complex global ELT landscape across countries as well as across teaching and learning settings. The volume brings together inquiries from language teachers, educators and researchers from different backgrounds in the Global South and the Global North, who use their experiences of shuttling across borders to reflect on the shaping of their pedagogical, research and professional practices across higher education settings. The chapters weave the personal, professional and theoretical in a seamless manner, examining transnational identities and pedagogical practices formed and informed by both communities – ‘home’ and ‘host’ – and include narratives that are not unidirectional. The contributing authors also use a variety of qualitative research methods, along with reflexive writing and exploration of the authors’ own positionalities, to shed light on transnational identities and critique dominant pedagogical assumptions.

Rashi Jain is Associate Professor in the Department of English Language for Academic Purposes, Linguistics and Communication Studies at Montgomery College in Rockville, Maryland. Rashi has published her research in practitioner-oriented journals, including the TESOL Journal, contributed to edited volumes, and co-edited (with Bedrettin Yazan and Suresh Canagarajah) the recently published Transnational Identities and Practices in English Language Teaching: Critical Inquiries from Diverse Practitioners and Autoethnographies in ELT Transnational Identities, Pedagogies, and Practices. Bedrettin Yazan is Associate Professor of TESL Teacher Education/Applied Linguistics at the University of Texas at San Antonio. His research focuses on language teacher identity, teacher collaboration, language policy and planning, and World Englishes. Methodologically he is interested in critical autoethnography, narrative inquiry, and qualitative case study. Bedrettin has an active research program and has published in Linguistics and Education, Language Teaching Research, TESOL Journal, World Englishes, and Critical Inquiry in Language Studies. Suresh Canagarajah is Edwin Erle Sparks Professor of English, Applied Linguistics, and Asian Studies, and Director of the Migration Studies Project at Pennsylvania State University. He teaches World Englishes, Second Language Writing, and Postcolonial Studies in the departments of English and Applied Linguistics. His recent edited publication, The Routledge Handbook of Language and Migration (2019), won the 2020 AAAL best book award.
