Subject: Book Chapter CFP: Teaching Global Englishes

 
Proposed chapter abstracts are invited for a volume entitled *Teaching English
Language Variation in the Global Classroom: Ideas and Activities from Teachers
and Linguists*. This collection is a follow-up to the 2019 Routledge volume
*Teaching Language Variation in the Classroom: Strategies and Models from
Teachers and Linguists*
(https://www.routledge.com/Teaching-Language-Variation-in-the-Classroom-Strate
gies-and-Models-from/Devereaux-Palmer/p/book/9781138597952).

Like its predecessor, this collection will feature research-based and
classroom-tested models for teaching the English language to students
primarily in secondary school contexts--though proposals for teaching English
in elementary and university contexts will also be considered. In this new
volume, emphasis will be given to the teaching of English with a global
perspective on language use. One type of contribution will be from teachers
and/or linguists working in countries in which English is a primary language,
who teach the subject within a global or world Englishes framework. Also
welcome are contributions from those teaching ESL (English as a Second
Language) or ESOL (English to Speakers of Other Languages) who incorporate
different dialects of English in their instruction in any classroom contexts
around the world.

Authors can be teachers or linguists; collaborations between teachers and
linguists are especially encouraged. Each chapter must consider practical
applications for teaching and must describe at least one implementable lesson
or activity (to be included at the chapter’s end or on the book’s website).
Topics may include (but are not limited to) the following:

- balancing a focus on local and global varieties of English
- teaching “standard” Englishes alongside “nonstandard” Englishes
- incorporating techniques involving code-switching, code-meshing, or
translanguaging
- teaching pidgins or creoles related to English
- teaching ideologies and real-world impacts related to global English
variation
- meeting existing local or national course standards and objectives by
incorporating a global or world Englishes framework
- fitting material on global English variation into an existing curriculum
focused on literature, writing, and/or cultural studies

If you are interested in contributing an essay of between 2500-3500 words,
please submit an abstract of 350-500 words by 31 January 2020. Your abstract
should clarify your intended topic and the types of evidence (e.g. sample
assignments from a class you have taught), research, theories, and/or
frameworks you will discuss. The abstract should include some details on the
classroom contexts in which you teach (e.g. type of school; region; types of
students taught). It should also address the value of your intended topic to a
broad range of scholars and instructors in the field of English language
pedagogy, as well as the value of your approach for students. At the end of
the abstract, provide 1-2 sentences describing an activity, assignment, or
lesson plan you intend to provide at the end of your proposed chapter.

Send proposals and inquiries about possible topics to the volume editors:
