Title: Citizenship and language learning
Description: "The book develops a theory and practice of language teaching and learning for citizenship based on understanding and implementing human rights in education. It explores representations of cultures, curriculum and pedagogical frameworks, and issues of equality and diversity. Case studies are drawn from a range of learning contexts in Latin America, Europe and Asia and consider young disadvantaged learners; e-learning exchanges; developing critical cultural awareness; civic education and language teaching; women's studies; and empowerment strategies for life long learning." "The book will be essential reading for teachers and students of languages (including TESOL and EAL), for teachers and students of citizenship, and for those responsible for curriculum policy and the training of teachers."--Jacket.
