Scope and method of study. This qualitative study used Mary Douglas's (1982) grid and group typology to explain the cultural context and preferences of foreign language instruction in a public university located in southern Thailand. Several data collection strategies were employed, including survey questionnaires, in-depth interviews, classroom observations, and document analysis. Triangulation, prolonged engagement, and peer debriefing are examples of several techniques used to ensure trustworthiness.

520 $a Scope and method of study. This qualitative study used Mary Douglas's (1982) grid and group typology to explain the cultural context and preferences of foreign language instruction in a public university located in southern Thailand. Several data collection strategies were employed, including survey questionnaires, in-depth interviews, classroom observations, and document analysis. Triangulation, prolonged engagement, and peer debriefing are examples of several techniques used to ensure trustworthiness.
520 $a Findings and conclusions. The findings of this study revealed that the overall context of TSU's working atmosphere and classroom settings was best described as bureaucratic (high-grid and low-group). The typical features of the teacher-centered approach were mainly adopted as a mode of teaching. However, the English faculty members preferred a collectivist (low-grid and high-group) work atmosphere where active collaboration and equal partnership between teachers and students are highly valued. The study suggests that a change from a bureaucratic to collectivist environment requires great effort, since these cultural prototypes are in diagonal quadrants of the grid and group typology. In order to implement a more learner-centered educational environment, emphasis should be placed on changing the teaching-learning environment and bridging relationships between faculty members and students as well as among the faculty members themselves.
