Summer 2017
As you leaf through the pages of this issue, you will notice how the underlying themes of the individual articles and their overt connections to each other suggest an ongoing dialogue in which the various views on English language teaching are reflecting and responding to one another: innovative classroom practices, curriculum design and development, the application of technology in learning/teaching strategies, the use of literature in language writing and reading, cultural dimensions of language teaching and learning, and the impact of language and educational policies on classroom practice.
