Beschrijving uitgever
Ernesto Macaro brings together a wealth of research on
the rapidly expanding phenomenon of English Medium
Instruction. Against a backdrop of theory, policy documents,
and examples of practice, he weaves together research in both
secondary and tertiary education, with a particular focus on the
key stakeholders involved in EMI: the teachers and the students.
Whilst acknowledging that the momentum of EMI is unlikely
to be diminished, and identifying its potential benefits, the
author raises questions about the ways it has been introduced
and developed, and explores how we can arrive at a true
cost–benefit analysis of its future impact.
“This state-of-the-art monograph presents a wide-ranging,
multi-perspectival yet coherent overview of research, policy,
and practice of English Medium Instruction around the
globe. It gives a thorough, in-depth, and thought-provoking
treatment of an educational phenomenon that is spreading
on an unprecedented scale.”
