The Practice Of English As A Medium Of Instruction (Emi) Around The World (Second Language Learning And Teaching)

This edited volume presents eleven empirical papers reporting the existing literature and the results of an original study focusing on EMI (English as a medium of instruction) in a particular area (central and Eastern Europe, western and Southern Europe, Nordic/Baltic countries, Central Asia, the Middle East, East Asia, south-east Asia, North Africa, sub-Saharan Africa, South Asia, and Latin America). Each of these different areas tends to have its own ways of dealing with the EMI issue, and these will be brought together in a meta-analysis in the final chapter. Implications for the conduct of English as a medium of instruction will be drawn, both on a chapter-by-chapter basis and also in the meta-analysis. The examination of EMI on a contextual basis is a unique feature of this book, setting it apart from others in the field, which almost all deal with a single or limited context. The volume will be of interest to policymakers, institutional heads, graduate students and their teachers, and to thesis writers and researchers.
