Developing Global Citizenship Among Efl Learners: A Pivotal Notion For The Global Citizen
Authors : Boukhelouf Athina .
Abstract
One of the core objectives of education is to equip learners with the prerequisite skills that permit them to successfully integrate into the global world. Teaching English as a Foreign Language (EFL) is part of education. Henceforth, it should emphasize and target specific skills among learners. Critical thinking, communication and collaboration, digital literacy, self-discipline and cross-cultural awareness are objectives worth considering.This paper aims to analyze the extent to which the aforementioned skills are respected by teachers and addressed by the programs used to teach English at Batna -2 University. Regrettably, the analysis of responses to the questionnaire administered to thirty EFL teachers at the Department of English highlights that only some skills are promoted through different subjects. Furthermore, teachers mention the need to include those skills and affirm that citizenship skills should immediately be looked at as necessary goals to be achieved by the process of teaching English as a Foreign Language. Finally, they suggest some ways that would help in the effective formation and construction of the global citizen.
