Abstract
Well-attested findings in World Englishes (WE), and English as a Lingua Franca (ELF) research studies, demand for a shift in perspective in English Language Teaching (ELT). The chapter will discuss recent developments in pluralistic approaches to ELT, identifying core aspects of possible WE and ELF-orientation in course-book organisation and sillabi both in terms of contents and teaching approaches, as well as provide suggestions and recommendations for publishers, teacher educators and teachers aimed at fostering awareness of World Englishes and ELF in teaching approaches, materials and classroom practices.
