Long description:
Combining the expertise of renowned academics and aviation experts, this edited collection draws together the latest research into language in the aviation industry, with a focus on teaching and assessment.
Exploring the different practices and challenges within the current teaching and assessment of aviation English, the volume provides highly valuable research-based recommendations for building successful curricula that advance training and learning. It investigates the challenges and future direction of the International Civil Aviation Organization Language Proficiency Requirements; the training of aviation language teachers; the benefits of a programmatic approach; phraseology training and computer assisted language learning; the use of radiotelephony role play; the use of corpus linguistics; and the assessment of pilots' listening comprehension. Advocating for best practice, this book is a significant contribution to continued development and improvement within the teaching and assessment of aviation English worldwide.
