Language policy and English learning development : suggestive language policy for the college of education-Ibn Rushd

Abstract EN

Language policy is a collection of regulations which aims at the achievement of a planned change in the language use in a certain environment.

It is the first block of initiating a strong program to teach English.

The Department of English at the Colleges of Education/Ibn Rushd, as other educational institutes in Iraq, lack the good procedures of planning their programs.

This problem is a product of the restricted policies of ministries and the great need of the exploration of the new methods of curriculum design adopted by other countries.

This article evaluates the mission of the College of Education/Ibn Rushd at the University of Baghdad and suggests a language policy which can enhance the process of learning English.
