• Resumen

  • The exponential growth of English Medium Instruction (EMI) particularly in higher education on a global scale is largely propelled by the rise of English as the global lingua franca in academic research and communications. Due to the diversities of educational and linguistic contexts, complexities of socio-cultural landscapes, and different disciplines of EMI, it is exceptionally challenging and highly essential to examine the EMI motivations, polices, and practices from a global perspective (Block & Khan, 2020). Jim McKinley and Nicola Galloway responded to this challenge in their new edited volume English Medium Instruction Practices in Higher Education: International Perspectives. With contributions from renowned EMI researchers from 21 different national and regional contexts, this volume provides insights into EMI implementations which vary at the national or region (macro), institutional (meso), and classroom (micro) levels. Reading this book has greatly strengthened my understanding about the history and the status quo of EMI practices in non-Anglophone contexts.
