Abstract:

This Element focuses on English-Medium instruction (EMI), an educational
approach that is spreading widely and rapidly in higher education institutions
throughout the world because it is regarded as a lynchpin of the
internationalisation process. The main aim of the Element is to provide
critical insights into EMI implementation and the results obtained so far in
diverse university contexts. After defining EMI and analysing the rapid
extension it has experienced, the volume tackles issues such as stakeholders'
views on how EMI programmes are being implemented, the impact of teaching and
learning both content and language in a foreign language, translanguaging
practices in English-medium lectures, and how assessment has hitherto been
addressed. Each section aims to bring to light new avenues for research. The
Element wraps up with a description of the many challenges ahead.
