The 21st century has witnessed the rapid development of the

technology, particularly information and communication

technology (ICT), which has changed not only how we live

and behave, but also how we interact, even how we per-

ceive knowledge and this world. The growingly ubiquitous

kinds of technology have intruded all aspects of life and

posed both opportunities and challenges in myriad fields,

including education. Moreover, ICT has also diminished the

geopolitical boundaries and thus created a borderless, limit-

less world where humans from different corners of the

earth, different sociocultural and linguistic backgrounds,

get connected, interact, and communicate. In conjunction

with this, the 21st century is also marked by a massive shift

in world politics, economics, and other factors. The accu-

mulation of these have called for attempts of redefining the

world as we know it today. For practitioners and enthusi-

asts of English language education, for example, the 21st

century have brought about some changes that force us to

redefine what we know and mean by language, language

learning, and teaching. We are challenged to view these

notions from broader perspectives and by integrating multi-

dimensional approaches beyond language itself in pursuit of

the betterment of English language education. As the suc-

cess of English language education is determined by numer-

ous factors such as teachers, curriculum, learning materials

and media, etc., research and discussions from various re-

lated fields are of great significance. To respond to this

challenge, English Education Study Program University of

Jambi took an initiative to hold a conference that will bring

together educators, researchers, experts, and enthusiasts to

Introduction share, discuss, and disseminate their studies and best practices

in the fields of English language education. Aimed at providing

a medium for discussion and sharing on various topics related

to the theme, the conference presents invited speakers from

Indonesia and overseas. Participants are expected to get en-

gaged in inspiring and enriching moments as they discuss,

gather, and network with colleagues from different places in

the conference titled English Education International Con-

ference (EDUTICON) 2015 .
