About this eTextbook
Theories, Frameworks and Implementation in Higher Education This book examines translanguaging pedagogy in Asia’s English-medium instruction (EMI) higher education. It presents an overview of concepts and common issues, and case studies from specific contexts in Asia. The book first interrogates macro-level English-medium instruction policies and implementation from English as a lingua franca (ELF) perspectives.
Following this, implications of English as a lingua franca on English-medium instruction pedagogy will be explored, with a theoretical framework of ‘translanguaging pedagogy' developed. The book concludes with a discussion on translanguaging and how the concept contributes to English-medium instruction in Asia. Through the book, the content focuses on the specificity of each Asian English-medium instruction context from a translanguaging lens.
English-medium instruction policies and translingual practices from China, Japan, Taiwan, Thailand, and Vietnam are explored, and opportunities and challenges related to translanguaging pedagogy in Asian English-medium instruction classrooms are examined. English-Medium Instruction Translanguaging Practices in Asia: Theories, Frameworks and Implementation in Higher Education and published by Springer.
