Abstract:
According to Bolton (2013), Chinese university students are invariably multilingual, not only acquiring English at school, but increasingly outside of their formal curricula, through the Internet, music, computer games, movies, and television series. Indeed, many of these students are also highly mobile, and in most cases migrate throughout Greater China (and abroad) in order to pursue higher education degrees. Bolton (2012, 2013) also points out that current theorizing about English in Greater China needs to take into account what he calls ‘the language worlds’ of these young people, especial

Abstract:
In the era of new media, many emerging technologies and devices are constantly being applied in English education in universities, and have shown good teaching effects. Especially in college English teaching, the use of new media technology and related resources can effectively optimize existing English teaching models and further innovate classroom teaching. However, in the actual teaching process, due to the influence of traditional English teaching concepts, as well as the single English teaching methods used by teachers when using new media technology, English teaching in universities are

Abstract:
The status of English as a medium of instruction in higher education in Bangladesh has always been a contentious issue since public universities move back and forth for continuing with English as a medium of instruction or not. On the other hand, the introduction of private universities in Bangladesh complicated the issue even more. The medium of instruction in private universities in Bangladesh is invariably English, while public universities do promote English in all their official activities, and the teachers of public universities use both Bangla and English in their class lectures, leadin

Although modem literary studies in the United States began well before the turn of the century, it was only through gradual evolution that the field acquired a self-conscious pedagogy differentiated from the methods of classical and philological education.

Abstract:
Recently, many institutions in non-Anglophone contexts have switched to using English as a medium of instruction in education mostly as a strategic response to globalisation and internationalisation. This switch has increased the intake of international students and staff, leading to the representation of diverse languages and cultures on campuses. Researchers, fascinated by such transformations, have explored issues around EMI from various perspectives, but less from a language perspective, which is largely concerned with language policy and practice. Given this gap, this research explores Tu
