English Medium Instruction Series

The EMI courses assist university instructors of all subject areas and experience levels to enhance their teaching skill and confidence in implementing English medium instruction methodologies. By the end of the series, EMI participants are able to:

• Plan units and lessons that facilitate student learning of course content in English.
• Design active learning strategies for engaging students with course content.
• Meet the academic and intercultural needs of international students in their classrooms.
• Enhance their skill and confidence in spoken and written English, including intelligible pronunciation in English.

Each of EMI’s 14-hour courses is grounded in current English medium instruction theory, and provides participants with opportunities to apply this theory to their classroom practice.
