Brooke R. Schreiber; Mihiri Jansz – ELT Journal, 2025
Despite a growing body of research demonstrating the pluralistic nature of English today, ELT globally still tends to uphold traditional 'native-speaker' norms. A Global Englishes language teaching (GELT) approach to teacher education is one way of breaking down that gap, yet it is not well known how the effects of this approach might hold up over…

Yi-Ping Huang; Lu-Chun Lin; Wenli Tsou – ELT Journal, 2025
English as a lingua franca (ELF) represents a substantial paradigm shift in ELT because it challenges the traditional norm of standard English. Despite this changing trend, there is a gap in research on incorporating ELF into in-service teachers' professional development (PD).

Daniel M. K. Lam – ELT Journal, 2025
Feedback penetrates many walks of our lives, and its importance in L2 teaching and assessment is well recognised. However, while corrective feedback and writing feedback have been the focus of much L2 research and classroom practice, there seems relatively little attention to feedback on spoken interactional skills. Concomitantly, translating…

Jeanine Treffers-Daller – ELT Journal, 2024
