Implications for ELT Educators

Perspective

b. Inserting Materials of EIL and Linguistic Imperialism into TEFL and

Sociolinguistic Classes Although English lecturers in this study recognise English as an international language, the findings conveyed that in their practice there is no attentiveness toward the ideology of English. Thus, it is suggested that the topics of EIL and linguistic imperialism be introduced in TEFL and sociolinguistic classes, since some participants are course coordinators of these units. As a result, the lecturers can help student teachers familiarise themselves with these topics as they become more aware of the current issues and become ready to face the challenges and demands of society.
