Recenzje

‘This is a highly unique collection of studies on English medium of instruction (EMI) due to its explicit focus on the use of qualitative methods and emerging scholars’ voices in diverse contexts. These voices engage with a variety of critical issues (e.g., epistemic network, ideologies, identities) to fill the relevant knowledge gaps in EMI research.’

Professor Andy Gao, The University of New South Wales

'If you are an EMI researcher who finds qualitative research challenging, this is the book that will help you jump over the methodological hurdles that you may come across when implementing your study. I can say with certainty that you will find the practical advice provided by the contributors most useful and valuable.'

David Lasagabaster, University of the Basque Country UPV/EHU
