摘要本文调查了德国学校英语课堂使用的教科书，以评估它们与当前英语作为国际语言教学趋势的相关性。对于许多欧洲学生来说，英语不再仅仅是一门外语，而是一种重要的欧洲弗兰卡。因此，我们认为，这是必要的语言被定位为这样的关键教科书在英语课堂上使用，其目的是为学生将来使用英语做好准备。通过一个适应性框架对德国使用的三个主要教材系列进行了分析，该框架描述了全球英语的语言教学方法，重点关注英语的所有权，用户，模式和目标对话者的表征。分析发现，存在过度依赖英国模式的英语，以及对语言使用者和文化的静态排斥。研究结果可以推广到其他国家，英语的社会语言学现实可能无法准确地反映在英语教学材料。
ABSTRACT This article investigates textbooks used in English classes in German schools to evaluate their relevance to current trends of teaching English as an international language. For many European students, English is no longer just a foreign language, but an important European lingua franca. Thus, we argue it is essential for the language to be positioned as such in key textbooks used in English classrooms, which aim to prepare students for future use of English. An analysis of three main textbook series used in Germany was done through an adapted framework that depicts a Global Englishes approach to language teaching, focussing on representations of ownership, users, models, and target interlocutors of English. The analysis found that there was over-reliance of UK models of English, and static depictions of language users and cultures. The findings can be generalized to other countries where the sociolinguistic reality of English may not be accurately represented in English teaching materials.
