This book explores language varieties in education. Not only global varieties of language, but also dialects and regionalisms present in English, regardless of whether the version is global English or varieties of English that can be found in predominantly English-speaking countries. The effects of these varieties and dialects on education and teachers' approach to pedagogy will be the focus of this book.
The global nature of this book's content has value to teachers, students, and other stakeholders who work closely with multilingual students or who are themselves multilingual. It fills a gap that exists between discussions of multilingualism and dialectical varieties of English, which are rarely discussed together, and how language varieties affect approaches to pedagogy.
The target audience includes anyone in the broad field of education, as well as educational and linguistic scholars, researchers, methodologists, program administrators, academics, graduate students, and teachers. This book can also be used in teacher training programs where the focus is on working with multilingual students.
