Series: Qualitative and Visual Methodologies in Educational Research

This timely book will guide researchers on how to apply qualitative research methods to explore English-medium instruction (EMI) issues, such as classroom interactions, teachers’ and students’ perceptions on language and pedagogical challenges, and stakeholders’ views on the implementation of EMI.

Each chapter focuses on a specific type of qualitative research methodology, beginning with an overview of the research and the method used, before presenting a unique case study. Chapters will also identify the process that EMI researchers went through to conduct their research, the key dilemmas they faced, and focus particularly on the methodological issues they encountered. By exploring these issues and providing up-to-date insights in contexts across the globe, this book informs theory or the lack thereof, underlying research into the phenomenon of EMI.

This text will be indispensable for researchers who want to learn and acquire skills in conducting qualitative research in EMI, as well as undergraduate and postgraduate students reading in the fields of applied linguistics and language education.

Reviews for Qualitative Research Methods in English Medium Instruction for Emerging Researchers: Theory and Case Studies of Contemporary Research

‘This is a highly unique collection of studies on English medium of instruction (EMI) due to its explicit focus on the use of qualitative methods and emerging scholars’ voices in diverse contexts. These voices engage with a variety of critical issues (e.g., epistemic network, ideologies, identities) to fill the relevant knowledge gaps in EMI research.’ Professor Andy Gao, The University of New South Wales'If you are an EMI researcher who finds qualitative research challenging, this is the book that will help you jump over the methodological hurdles that you may come across when implementing your study. I can say with certainty that you will find the practical advice provided by the contributors most useful and valuable.' David Lasagabaster, University of the Basque Country UPV/EHU
