Genre Analysis of Article Abstracts in International and Chinese TESOL Journals Written in English and Its Use in Teaching English for Academic Purposes in a Tertiary Institution in China

This study recommends a structure for academic writing courses for Chinese TESOL MA students, focusing not only on language patterns emerging from the genre analysis, but also on the construction of individual academic portfolios, in which students build up a sample range of assessed academic writing. The portfolio would include language expression, research methods and analyses, literature reviews and academic writing skills, including abstract writing. These recommendations are expected to promote the reform of the MA TESOL curriculum, arouse Chinese practitioners' interest in submitting articles to international journals, and guide MA students to do research in institutions like Chongqing University.

A Practicum in TESOL

Professional Development Through Teaching Practice

A Practicum in TESOL is a valuable source book for both teacher educators and classroom teachers. It ranges widely across key areas of practice from the nitty-gritty of lesson planning and classroom management, through conceptual areas such as motivation and observation, to crucial if more abstract aspects, such as teachers beliefs and values. It also delves into the moral and political dimensions of teaching. Discussion of these areas, though well-grounded in relevant academic literatures, is also supported by extensive quotes from real teachers working on their practice. The treatment is sufficiently challenging to interest the experienced teacher, while covering matters of basic practice that would be of concern to the beginner. Anyone doing a TESOL practicum will want to use this book whether as an in-service teacher or as a teacher longing to further their professional development. A Practicum in TESOL can be used individually or in groups.

And in addition, because of the international power and potential influence of
English within both English-speaking and non—Englishspeaking countries'
school curricula, and because of its influence on the life-courses of many
students, ...

TESOL: A Guide

This book serves as a comprehensive reference resource for current and prospective English language teachers, students of TESOL, academics, and other professionals working within the field of Teaching English as a Second or Other Language (TESOL). As an essential single-volume resource, TESOL: A Guide explores TESOL in three dimensions: as a profession, as a field of study, and as an international association. In doing so, it offers a thorough summary of themes and issue relevant to TESOL's multiple dimensions, including a practical overview of the TESOL profession and a compendium of current TESOL research topics and methodologies. In commemoration of the 50th anniversary of TESOL International Association, a key section of the book highlights the development of this association and features the reflections of several previous TESOL International Association presidents. Readers will also appreciate the extensive glossary and appendix of TESOL resources, both of which are designed to comprise a valuable and manageable guide for newcomers to the field, as well as for developing practitioners and researchers.

Desiring TESOL and International Education

Market Abuse and Exploitation

This book addresses how Western universities have constructed themselves as global providers of education, and are driven to be globally competitive. It examines how the term ‘international’ has been exploited by the market in the form of government educational policies and agencies, host institutions, academia and the mass media. The book explores matters relating to the role of the English language in international education in general and the field of TESOL in particular. It demonstrates how English and TESOL have exercised their symbolic power, coupled with the desire for international education, to create convenient identities for international TESOL students. It also discusses the complexity surrounding and informing these students’ painful yet sophisticated appropriation of and resistance to the convenient labels they are subjected to.
