Yves Bestgen – Language Learning, 2024
The impact of text length on the estimation of lexical diversity has captured the attention of the scientific community for more than a century. Numerous indices have been proposed, and many studies have been conducted to evaluate them, but the problem remains. This methodological review provides a critical analysis not only of the most commonly…

Suresh Canagarajah – TESOL Quarterly: A Journal for Teachers of English to Speakers of Other Languages and of Standard English as a Second Dialect, 2025
In this brief forum article, I draw from the disciplinary orientation of linguistic anthropology to discuss how a collection of linguistic and semiotic resources gets "enregistered" as the "language" for specific communicative activities. Enregisterment is an ongoing social and ideological process whereby a semiotic corpus gets…

Rashi Jain – TESOL Journal, 2024
Identities are fluid, dynamic, and contextual; and identity (co)construction is a deeply contextualized process, especially when seen through postmodern and poststructural lenses. Adopting a qualitative-researcher-as-bricoleuse stance, the author presents an overarching autoethnographic narrative where she specifically analyzes three critical,…

Yuichi Suzuki; Dustin Crowther – TESOL Quarterly: A Journal for Teachers of English to Speakers of Other Languages and of Standard English as a Second Dialect, 2025
One key tenet of Global Englishes for Language Teaching (GELT) is that the native English speaker should no longer serve as the role model for second language (L2) English users. Such a view does not discount that some degree of linguistic knowledge is necessary for successful global communication. However, GELT scholarship has remained relatively…

Walid Daffri; Hadjer Taibi – ELT Journal, 2023
This study explores the concept of 'Academic Coloniality' in ELT at an Algerian University. Academic Coloniality refers to the practices and beliefs of people involved in ELT that contribute to the production, manifestation, and reproduction of power patterns between the 'native speakers' of English and its learners. Through this, we aim to show…

Mark Bedoya Ulla; Ethel Jovy Wacas; Wendy Eustaquio; Geraldine S. Wakat – International Journal of Multilingualism, 2025
Teachers' accents have become important in World Englishes (WE) and English as a lingua franca (ELF) studies. However, limited studies investigate how English teachers view their accents and how such perceptions affect their teaching practice. This study uses narrative inquiry to explore two Filipino English language teachers' perceptions and…

Rowland Anthony Imperial – TESOL Quarterly: A Journal for Teachers of English to Speakers of Other Languages and of Standard English as a Second Dialect, 2025
In this article, I propose an ontological break in Global Englishes-oriented research and teaching practice, and a critical-ethical movement beyond the five foundational paradigms of GELT. I do this by first drawing on two philosophical perspectives on liberation and justice--Enrique Dussel's (2013) ethics of liberation and Olúf?´mi O. Táíwò's…

Yongzhi Miao; Okim Kang; Xianghui Meng – TESOL Quarterly: A Journal for Teachers of English to Speakers of Other Languages and of Standard English as a Second Dialect, 2025
With the rise of different English varieties, scholars argued for reconceptualizing teaching pedagogies to acknowledge and incorporate diverse Global English (GE) varieties into the classroom (Rose & Galloway, 2019). However, very few studies explored the effectiveness of such innovative pedagogy on language skills. This study investigated the…

An important first step to globalizing and decentralizing foreign language education is to clarify current language teachers' perceptions of language varieties and how these perceptions influence their pedagogy. The present study looked at English and French language classrooms in K-12 and university settings in the United States to compare…

Rose, Heath; McKinley, Jim; Galloway, Nicola – Language Teaching, 2021
The rise of English as a global language has led scholars to call for a paradigm shift in the field of English language teaching (ELT) to match the new sociolinguistic landscape of the twenty-first century. In recent years a considerable amount of classroom-based research and language teacher education (LTE) research has emerged to investigate…

As English plays a key role as an international language, the foundations of teaching and learning English may need to change in response to the new, global sociolinguistic landscape of the twenty-first century.
