Scope for Research in English Language Teaching (ELT)
Abstract
English Language Teaching (ELT) is a dynamic field that constantly evolves in response to changes in society, technology, and pedagogical approaches. This research paper explores the key challenges faced by researchers in the domain of ELT. These challenges encompass various aspects of ELT research, including technology integration, learner diversity, assessment practices, teacher professional development, and the evolving role of English as a global lingua franca. This paper discusses these challenges in detail, offering insights into their implications for ELT research and suggesting potential avenues for future research to address these issues effectively.
