        Summary
        This research concerns using English as a world language as a means to the development of identity in adolescents in the context of citizenship education integrated in English as a foreign language education in upper-secondary school in the Netherlands. This was carried out in response to one of the EMVT5.1 (Multilingualism) recommendations of curriculum.nu and a report from the KNAW (2018). Insights from developmental psychology, linguistics, educational theories and educational design research principles were combined to create assignments that address English linguistic and cultural diversity. This resulted in a free website for students and teachers with assignments. This was one of the first attempts to show the practical implementation of linguistic and cultural diversity in the English curriculum in the Netherlands.
