Introducing English for Academic Purposes (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Introducing English for Academic Purposes is an accessible and engaging textbook which presents a wide-ranging introduction to the field, covering the global and institutional position of EAP as well as its manifestations in classrooms and research contexts around the world.

The new edition is fully revised and includes expanded and updated discussions on differences across geographical contexts for EAP, academic misconduct and generative artificial intelligence and testing and post-COVID online options. The second edition also offers new and updated activities and a full new chapter on genre and vocabulary.

Each chapter provides:

. a critical overview introducing readers to theory- and research-informed perspectives;

. profiles of practice to guide readers in putting theory to use in real-world contexts;

. tasks, reflection exercises and a glossary to help readers consolidate their understanding;

. an annotated further reading section with links to online resources to enable readers to extend their knowledge.

Covering both theoretical and practical issues, Introducing English for Academic Purposes is essential reading for students of applied linguistics, and pre-service and in-service teachers of EAP.
