Sinopsis

This book was inspired by the ongoing theme of the Malaysia International Conference on Languages, Literatures and Cultures (MICOLLAC). The papers in this volume highlight challenges, approaches and collaboration in second or foreign language learning contexts. The collection begins with the seminal paper by Professor Cynthia White entitled "Framing the Future of English in Asia: Issues of Language, Culture and Communication". In this paper, she argues that the future of English in Asia will be influenced by local practices, virtual spaces and global forces in the learning and use of English. The rest of the papers are organised into three thematic sections: challenges from multilingualism and multiculturalism, approaches to language learning, and collaboration in language learning. This volume will benefit academicians, researchers, practitioners and students interested in understanding old and new challenges in language teaching and learning, and how various pedagogical and collaborative approaches can be applied in different contexts.
