Ellis, G. (2014). 'Young learners': Clarifying our terms. ELT Journal, 68(1), 75-78.
摘要:Ellis addresses the use of the term 'young learner' in the ELT profession, which often refers to any learner under the age of 18. While used by private language providers, publishers, and exam boards, this term is rarely used by parents or professionals in mainstream education. With the increasing number of children and teenagers learning English globally, Ellis ponders if this term has become outdated. Adapted from the source document
