2.1 ELF-aware teaching
Review Materials
Welcome to the “ELF-aware teaching” Section of the ENRICH CPD Course. This Section focuses on defining the concept of “ELF awareness” and, in particular, the concept of “ELF-aware teaching”, as a process whereby insights drawn from English as a Lingua Franca (ELF) are integrated in current ELT practices to the extent that this is appropriate and relevant to the local context. Special emphasis is placed on the three components of the concept of ELF awareness, namely “awareness of language and language use”, “awareness of instructional practice” and “awareness of learning”, and on what each of them involves in practice. Specific examples of the ways in which textbook input and activities can be enriched from an ELF-aware perspective are provided. This Section includes 3 Activities in total.
