Abstract:

Linguistic landscapes can play an important role in educating individuals
beyond formal pedagogical environments. This book argues that anywhere can be
a space for people to learn from displayed texts, images, and other
communicated signs, and consequently a space where teachable cultural moments
are created.

Following language learning trajectories that 'exit through the language
classroom' into city streets, public offices, museums and monuments, this
volume presents innovative work demonstrating that anyone can learn from the
linguistic landscape that surrounds them. Offering a bridge between
theoretical research and practical application, chapters consider how we make
sense of places by understanding how the landscape is used to express, claim
and contest identities and ideologies. In this way, "Linguistic Landscapes
Beyond the Language Classroom" highlights the unexpected potential of the
informal settings for learning and for teachers to expand their students'
intercultural experience.
