Description
This is a collection of papers that offers a great deal for teachers of English for Academic Purposes to reflect on. While these papers are all grounded in UK higher education, the issues discussed are pertinent for all teachers in institutions which employ English — or another international language — as their educational medium. It is heartening to see a collection of papers whose main concern is to place the student at the centre not only of our teaching concerns, but of those reflective practices that will help to inform the practices of our institutions and of our colleagues in other disciplines.
