Resumen: |
Este libro explora un área que hasta la fecha ha sido pasada por alto en la literatura: el estado actual y las tendencias futuras de la educación inglesa en Omán. Ofrece una variedad de enfoques teóricos y metodológicos del tema y explora áreas de la educación inglesa en Omán que, hasta ahora, han sido poco investigadas. Explora estos temas desde una variedad de perspectivas: la profesionalización de los profesores de inglés en el paÃs; la implementación de metodologÃas de enseñanza, planes de estudio y enfoques de evaluación novedosos en entornos educativos que, en muchos sentidos, siguen siendo muy tradicionales; la integración de la identidad del alumno en la enseñanza del idioma inglés; preocupaciones especÃficas del paÃs y la cultura al realizar investigaciones con participantes omanÃes; las demandas estratégicas de construir vÃnculos más fuertes entre la educación y las necesidades de fuerza laboral; y desarrollar la autonomÃa y la motivación del alumno. |

Summary : |
This book explores an area that has been somewhat overlooked in the literature to date – the current status and future trends of English education in Oman. It offers a variety of theoretical and methodological approaches to the subject and explores areas of English education in Oman that have, until now, been little investigated. It explores these issues from a variety of perspectives: the professionalization of English teachers in the country; the implementation of novel teaching methodologies, curricula, and assessment approaches, into what are, in many ways, still very traditional education settings; the integration of learner identity into English language instruction; country- and culture-specific concerns with conducting research with Omani participants; the strategic demands of building stronger links between education and workforce needs; and developing learner autonomy and motivation. |
