Against the backdrop of uncritical promotions of English-medium instruction (EMI) in higher education globally, this edited volume maps out the political, ideological, and policy-related issues of EMI programs in multilingual and multicultural universities in Asia. In this volume, EMI researchers and practitioners involved in different Asian countries and regions have collaboratively unpacked the critical dimensions of EMI programs in higher education, with a goal to provide must-needed resources for researchers, graduate students, higher education leaders, and policymakers. This volume is the first of its kind in that it provides an exclusive and critical tapestry of EMI at multilingual universities from all parts of Asia, including Central Asia (Kazakhstan), East Asia (Mainland China, Korea, Japan, and Taiwan), South Asia (Bangladesh and Nepal), Southeast Asia (Brunei, Malaysia, Philippines, Thailand, and Vietnam), and Western Asia (United Arab Emirates). The key takeaway for the reader is to not only understand the current phenomenon of EMI in Asian universities but to also learn the dark side of its policies, programs, and practices that have led to unequal teaching and learning spaces in diverse societies. This collection will be of interest to scholars and policymakers in English-medium instruction, English language teaching, TESOL, and applied linguistics.

This collection brings together perspectives from emerging and established scholars, working from empirical data from real-life classroom experiences, to investigate pedagogical issues in the application of EMI across a range of educational contexts in Asia. Drawing on research across different levels of education covering institutions across various contexts across Asia, the book engages in key questions around power, marginalization, attitudes, intercultural communication, and identity construction as they unfold in classrooms in which a plurality of languages and varieties of English collide and are mediated, appropriated, and accommodated. The volume explores the pedagogical challenges, policies, and practices of EMI which emerge in these settings, highlighting real-life problems in EMI program development and the wider pedagogical implications for EMI implementation in varied educational environments. Taken together, the chapters offer opportunities for further research toward challenging traditionally held beliefs and blind implementation of EMI and encouraging critical perspectives from both researchers and policymakers alike. Pedagogies of English-Medium Instruction Programs in Asian Universities will be of interest to scholars and practitioners in English-medium instruction, English language teaching, TESOL, and applied linguistics.

Jack Pun presents best practices in pedagogy and teaching to facilitate effective content-subject learning at the secondary school level.

The book explores the teaching and learning processes in EMI senior secondary science classrooms based in thirty secondary schools in Hong Kong. Conducting analyses of classroom, teacher and student perception data, the author discusses the issues of teaching science through the medium of English in secondary schools, the implications and applications for professional development of science teachers and other content-subject teachers, and suggests strategies for teaching science in different EMI contexts. This volume is highly relevant to scholars in the field of educational linguistics, particularly in English language teaching, content-based instruction, content and language integrated learning, and English as a medium of instruction. It is also useful to education policymakers, school teachers, research students, English and education majors.

Adding to the growing body of research on English Medium Instruction (EMI), this book focuses on the language support systems currently used by EMI mathematics and social science schoolteachers and university lecturers in South Korea. While EMI is an instructional field, there is a gap in the knowledge of how teachers and lecturers integrate English language-specific practices within their curriculum. Drawing on findings from an observational and interview-based case study at secondary and tertiary levels in South Korea, the research outlines differing planned teaching practices and illustrates EMI classroom interaction, language-related episodes (LREs) in this interaction, and vocabulary materials developed by EMI teachers and lecturers. Hong and Basturkmen discuss how they assessed the students’ learning from LREs in classroom interaction and the results from these findings, which illustrate practical advice and guidelines for integrating a focus on language into the discipline of teaching. The volume also offers several application tasks, including two reflection-on-practice projects, which the reader can try out by using the procedures developed in the case study. This is the first major book-length examination of EMI in the South Korean context and presents a useful resource for EMI teachers, lecturers, and educators – in South Korea and globally – who are looking to develop their methodology for language, including practical suggestions about how to seamlessly incorporate the learning of disciplinary vocabulary and forms of expression using EMI.

This novel, edited volume looks at a previously under-researched area of language teacher agency and identity by exploring the experience of novice pre- and in-service teachers for whom English is a second language and presents research gathered from Asia, Europe, South America, and the US to bring underrepresented voices to the fore. Divided into three sections together covering chapters on identity, agency, and professional competencies, this book presents qualitative data on the lived experiences of novice teachers and the challenges they face to their sense of agency, from personal histories and backgrounds, institutional demands, and sociocultural pressures. Chapters take a case study approach to provide research on how the transition from theory to in-classroom practice can be eased, and strategies for coping with socio-pedagogical challenges can be found. With contributions from renowned and emerging scholars, ultimately, this book supports a better understanding of how novice teachers can navigate their agencies in a variety of contexts. Engaging with the novel dimension of novice teachers’ agency in order to expand the boundaries of research, this book will appeal to scholars, researchers, and postgraduate students in the fields of teachers and teacher education, initial teacher training, English language teaching and training, and applied linguistics more broadly.

This Handbook discusses the theoretical and disciplinary background to the study of English-medium instruction (EMI) in higher education worldwide. It highlights issues relating to EMI pedagogy, varying motivations for EMI education, and the delivery of EMI in diverse contexts across the world. The spread of English as a teaching medium and the lingua franca of the academic world has been the subject of various debates in recent years on the perceived hegemony of the English language and the ‘domain loss’ of non-English languages in academic communication. Encompassing a wide range of contributions to the field of EMI, the chapters of this Handbook are arranged in four distinct parts: Part I provides an overview of English-medium instruction in higher education worldwide; Part II focusses on EMI in Europe; Part III on EMI in the Middle East, North Africa, and Sub-Saharan Africa; and Part IV on EMI in the Asian region. The overall scope and level of expertise of this Handbook provides an unrivalled overview of this field of education. It serves as an essential reference for many courses dealing with applied linguistics, English language education, multilingualism, sociolinguistics, and related subjects at many levels of education, including Master’s and PhD-level studies. This Handbook serves as a valuable edition for university libraries across the world and an essential read for many faculty, undergraduate and postgraduate students, educators, and policymakers.
