SCOPE OF ENGLISH LANGUAGE TEACHING IN NATIONAL EDUCATION POLICY 2020
Gayathri Paliath, Dr. Raji Dhinakar.
Abstract
The National Education Policy 2020 has raised a lot of concerns, especially with reference to the section on languages. This article discusses the background of this policy, the relevant aspects on languages, and addresses the criticisms raised with regard to the teaching of English Language and the regional languages, as well as the teaching of other subjects using English or regional languages. It argues that much of the criticism arises from an incomplete understanding of the policy and the ability of a child to learn languages and other subjects at different ages. The advantage of learning multiple languages is highlighted. ELT professionals have to develop new teaching techniques to adapt to the changes introduced by the NEP 2020.
Key words: English Language, Teaching, National Education Policy
