Editat de Hugo Bowles, Amanda C. Murphy

This edited book examines English-Medium Instruction (EMI) language policy and practice in higher education around the world, highlighting how English language usage affects the internationalization of universities, the way that disciplines are taught and learned, and questioning whether internationalization through EMI achieves the values of global citizenship and inclusivity/diversity to which it aspires. Written by experts in the field, the book includes data-based research from universities around the globe, with three chapters on Asia and the Far East (Malaysia, Japan and China), four on Europe (Denmark, the Netherlands and Italy) and one each on Africa (Ethiopia) and Central America (Mexico).

This book will be of interest to students and scholars of language and education policy, internationalization and applied linguistics, particularly English-Medium Instruction (EMI), academic English and English as a Lingua Franca (ELF).

Recenzii

“English-Medium Instruction and the Internationalization of Universities, edited by Hugo Bowles and Amanda Murphy, is a must-read book … . Overall, through examining stakeholders’ perceptions and policies, this book enables policymakers and school administrators to understand the urgent need for clear guidance, assisting them to formulate policies to initiate and contextualize IHE and EMI. It is also key to instructors, material compilers, curriculum designers and assessment developers who collaborate and prepare students for international challenges.” (Xiaowen (Serina) Xie, RELC Journal, October 12, 2021)
