Aprašymas

This book highlights the importance of incorporating indigenous cultural components into the English language teaching curriculum.

English language learning must be designed, keeping in mind the socio-cultural factors that may influence the learning of English and also aim at promoting cultural awareness in them. The syllabus should incorporate intercultural materials that meet local standards of acceptability.

Learning of local cultural materials through English is not only important but is also feasible. Inclusion of local indigenous topics will prove advantageous to the learners and also bring about cultural awareness among them. This will also make learning a better experience and make it interesting for the students, as they will be able to relate to what they are learning.

The book will be of great help to the future works along this line. The suggestions provided in the book will be of great help to language planners, syllabus designers, language teachers and the learners.
