Course Aims

This course aims to prepare students with a comprehensive understanding of the global spread of use of English as medium of instruction (EMI) in school sectors. Students learn in particular concepts and research relating to EMI. Key topics to cover the course include methodological approaches to researching EMI, current debates and challenges related to teaching and learning through EMI, and teacher professional development to cope with EMI. Engaging case study as one of its major instructional methods, the course offers students opportunities to analyse and critically reflect on practices of EMI pedagogies around the world, while also encouraging them to draw implications for teaching in their own contexts.
