Teaching English as a Second or Other Language (TESOL) is a multifaceted academic discipline requiring training in linguistics, language acquisition, language pedagogy, methodology, materials development, testing and research, curriculum and syllabus design, programme administration and cross-cultural communication. This series of advanced textbooks in TESOL comprises individual volumes addressing an identifiable subfield within TESOL in more depth than would be covered in an introductory textbook to the area as a whole. Each volume is designed for use alongside taught module-length topics on TESOL degrees. As a whole, the series provides a comprehensive introduction to the subject.

Developing Intercultural Language Materials puts intercultural competence at the forefront of the learning agenda. It unpicks its underlying theory and provides a framework and practical methodologies for practitioners, providing a toolkit for them to create their own learning materials and design their own classroom activities to nurture intercultural competence.This innovative book showcases some of the new ways language teachers in practice successfully integrate this essential skill into their curricula. Directions for further research, pulling out recurring threads in this book, such as critical pedagogy and cultural sensibility, offer opportunities for professional development.This research‑grounded and action‑oriented text is essential reading for language and cultural studies practitioners who want to help their students thrive in today’s multicultural world.

This is an essential resource for anyone studying or teaching both applied linguistics and materials development. Founded on the principled development of materials for language learning underpinned by applied linguistic theory, this new edition now features new chapters on:· aligning textbook content with real-world language use· materials development and assessment in comprehensive learning systems· developing materials in the age of AI· global coursebooks in the post-methods era· trans-modal second-language compositionEach chapter leads with the foundational theory and research conclusions for its area and then sets out their practical applications for materials development. By reporting and commenting on current theory and research, analysing the match between current published materials and current theory and suggesting and exemplifying applications of current theory to materials development, Applied Linguistics and Materials Development bridges the continuing gap between research and practice. Its unifying principle is the enabling of researchers and practitioners to help learners to develop communicative ability in their target language.

Situated within the context of unprecedented levels of inward migration to the UK and Ireland bringing with it all the complexities of integration, this volume focuses on a key aspect of this - language provision. Through the voices of stakeholders in the field of teaching English to speakers of other languages (ESOL), this volume critically examines models of language provision and integration, the relationship between language and identity, developing ESOL practices and ESOL policy. A distinctive feature is the diversity of contributions, ranging from research studies to vignettes presenting living portraits of ESOL practice on the ground. The volume fills an urgent gap in this area, offering a snapshot of the ‘state of the art’ of ESOL in the UK and Ireland and projections of how the needs of new migrants can be addressed into the future.

Language learning materials development remains a surprisingly under-supported aspect of language teaching. This book constitutes a much-needed resource in the area, aiming to support and advance the craft of materials design. The volume offers a snapshot of the contemporary influences on language learning materials development from diverse perspectives around the globe. These influences include the demands of teaching ESOL in Britain and Ireland, the impact of Corpus Linguistics, the needs of young learners and of diverse worldwide audiences, the development of intercultural competence, as well as the integration of L2 acquisition research. Contributors to the volume are drawn from a broad range of teaching, research and materials development backgrounds. The book includes some chapters based on papers given at the MATSDA (Materials Development Association) 2008 conference.
