Researching English-Medium Higher Education: Diverse Applications and Critical Evaluations of the ROAD-MAPPING Framework: Routledge Focus on English-Medium Instruction in Higher Education
Editat de Emma Dafouz, Ute Smiten Limba Engleză Paperback – 26 aug 2024
With the use of this framework and its six interrelated dimensions, the nine studies included in this volume explore key topics for English-Medium Education in Multilingual University Settings (EMEMUS) from diverse perspectives. These range from multi-sited, meta-level approaches critically analysing different countries and their realisations of EMEMUS to using ROAD-MAPPING as a methodological tool to analyse all its dimensions or place the lens on a particular aspect. By doing so, the contributions demonstrate the strength of the ROAD-MAPPING framework for investigating and understanding the complex nature of EMEMUS.
The volume makes a valuable contribution to the development of EMEMUS research and is thus highly recommended for scholars, policymakers and students interested in one of the most fast-growing (and contested) research areas in applied linguistics today.

Academic and PostgraduateRecenzii
With an ever-expanding outpouring of research into English-medium education, it is easy to get overwhelmed. For nearly a decade, Emma Dafouz and Ute Smit have been adeptly leading scholars in understanding English-medium higher education in a way that does justice to its complexity. In this must-read collection, scholars across the world showcase how the editors’ ROAD-MAPPING framework can be applied to understand, plan and evaluate English-Medium education in a range of different contexts. Whether you are a researcher, a higher education policy maker or an educational manager wishing to know where the field is heading, make this your go-to resource.

It is now undeniable that EMI (English-medium instruction) or more appropriately, EMEMUS (English-medium Education in Multilingual University Settings), is drastically increasing worldwide, in which the ROAD-MAPPING framework plays an indispensable role in mapping out untrodden ‘roads’ to conduct successful planning, implementations, and assessment of EMEMUS by providing a systematic, yet flexible guide for conducting EME-related research and practices. Dafouz and Smit have convincingly demonstrated the possible utilisation of the framework by this excellent collection of case studies at varying educational levels and in diverse academic disciplines across the globe. A must on the road to successful implementations of EMEMUS.

Emma Dafouz and Ute Smit’s ROAD-MAPPING framework has quickly become a profoundly useful instrument to analyse and compare instances of English-medium education in multilingual university settings due to the scope of the six dimensions. In this volume the contributing authors admirably encapsulate the dynamism in research that the framework has stimulated. Chapters highlight the theoretical and practical flexibility of the framework in different contexts across the world, as well as the methodological depth applications can afford. This book should become a standard for scholars wishing to understand the fuzziness of applications of English-medium education in multilingual university settings.

Descriere
This book brings together researchers and practitioners who, despite coming from very different geopolitical areas and pursuing distinct research objectives, coincide in their use of the ROAD-MAPPING conceptual framework. A valuable contribution to EMEMUS research recommended for scholars, policymakers and students of applied linguistics.
