Daron Benjamin Loo; Jariya Sairattanain – English in Education, 2024
In Malaysia and some parts of Southeast Asia, efforts to decolonise the English language classroom remain minimal.

Drachmann, Natascha; Haukås, Åsta; Lundberg, Adrian – Language, Culture and Curriculum, 2023
In Scandinavia, plurilingualism has been embraced as an important goal in language curricula. However, research shows that teachers struggle to understand what plurilingualism is and how it can be implemented. To address this lack of clarity, we analysed the curricula for the three main language subjects of schooling in Denmark, Norway, and Sweden…

da Costa Cabral, Ildegrada – Language Policy, 2021
This article makes the case for conducting ethnographic research of a multi-scalar nature that links language policy processes and ideologies of language with everyday practices, on the ground, in local schools and classrooms.

Hamid, M. Obaidul; Jahan, Iffat – Language Policy, 2021
As global language policy, English language teaching (ELT) development aid is as old as the field of language policy and planning.
