English and its Role in Education
Abstract
This paper deals with the themes of the concrete impact of globalization in the consolidation of English as a global language, as well as the consolidated correlation between English and education. The article sheds light on the internationalization of higher education as an inevitable phenomenon of globalization and the role of English in preserving and advancing it. The analysis focuses on the concrete influence of English as a global language in Albania, well as the approaches and policies of the Albanian state for the inclusion of English in school/university curricula, as a language that will stimulate Albania overall development.
Keywords: English language, education, consolidation, internationalization, globalization.
