About this ebook

This handbook is a landmark volume offering an unparalleled exploration of English language education in the world’s largest archipelagic nation. Home to over 17,000 islands and more than 600 ethnolinguistic groups, Indonesia has an extraordinary linguistic and cultural diversity making up a unique context for English language education. With the growing prominence of Indonesia’s superdiversity, this comprehensive resource on English language education in the country is timely.

This handbook assembles cutting-edge research reviews from a diverse group of contributors, both Indonesian and international. It investigates key themes across six major areas: history and policy; curriculum and assessment; pedagogy; teacher education; English in the education system; and innovative approaches to the English language, teaching, and research. With perspectives ranging from historical and sociolinguistic to pedagogical and ideological, the chapters provide a multidimensional understanding of the complexities and opportunities shaping English language education in Indonesia.

An essential resource for academics, policymakers, teachers, and students, this volume not only captures the dynamism of English education in Indonesia but also charts pathways for future scholarship, practice, and policymaking. It serves as a critical reference for anyone seeking to understand and contribute to the evolving landscape of English language education in the nation.
