Global Englishes and Multilingual English Speakers
What is multilingualism? Who is a multilingual English speaker?
Have you ever thought about these questions? Do you think learning a new language comes with challenges? Do you think speaking many languages has any benefits?
In this module, we are going to collectively explore the ideas around multilingualism in the context of global Englishes. As you think about the topic and read/view materials, you will complete a number of assignments, including reading tasks, classroom discussions, a group presentation, and writing a paragraph and an essay. In addition, you may be asked to complete assigned labwork that will help you with the composition assignment.
