Rober Baird博士简介

Dr. Robert Baird is an ESRC member at the University of Southampton, researching English as a Medium of Instruction in Asia from an English as a Lingua Franca’ (ELF) and intercultural communication (IC) perspective. He has been an English teacher in Britain and Asia since 2002. He retains an active role in language support/preparation at his university and an academic involvement in the Centre for Applied Language Research at the University of Southampton (CALR) and the centre for Global English and ELF Studies (GES), both of which aim to inspire and showcase new research in language teaching and learning, and to connect such research to the wider community. His key research interests are the applications of ELF and critical theory towards more inclusive and effective practices in pedagogy, assessment and institutional language use.
