Description

While changes in the demographic, economic, socio-political, linguistic, and educational aspects of life in Singapore have been well documented by specialists in separate fields, this book provides a state-of-the-art analysis of the interrelationship of developments in language, society, and education. It covers English, Chinese, Malay, and Tamil - Singapore's official languages, drawing upon recent empirical research. The book offers insights from various perspectives, including classroom pedagogy, and addresses the language needs of both students and working adults.
