This book offers a critical exploration of definitions, methodologies, and ideologies of English-medium instruction (EMI) and contributes to new understandings of translanguaging as theory and pedagogy across diverse contexts.
It brings together a variety of conceptual and empirical studies on translanguaging in EMI at different educational levels, in a variety of countries, with different approaches to translanguaging, different named languages, and different policies.
These studies include a number of underrepresented contexts across the globe, providing a broad view of how translanguaging theory and pedagogy in EMI is understood in these educational contexts.
Furthermore, this book addresses the complexities of translanguaging through a discussion of the affordances and constraints associated with the use of multiple linguistic resources in the EMI classroom.
