The Globalization of English
Overview
Description
This course analyzes how the English language aids globalization and how globalization changes English. After studying the historical and geographical bases for the rise of English, we explore the implications of decolonization, diaspora communities, the Internet, and the new economy for diversifying the structure, norms, and usage of the English language. Students engage in research, oral presentations, electronic discussion, and collaborative inquiry to explore the subject. Students may receive credit for ENG 4015, COM 4015 or SOC 4015. These courses may not substitute for each other in the F-grade replacement policy.This course may serve as the capstone for the liberal arts English minor.
