资助信息牛津大学约翰·费尔研究基金，资助/奖励编号：0003998在非英语国家（英语教学，EMI），通过英语授课的学术科目的增长与对其吸引力的研究的增长相匹配。研究还表明，EMI教师需要专业发展（PD）才能有效地教学。虽然PD课程是可用的，但对于EMI教师所需的能力，以及他们的认证，并没有达成共识。我们的国际调查探讨了教师对EMI学生所面临的语言挑战所提出的能力的看法，以及教师是否认为认证是可取的。教师们渴望获得国际一级的证书，从而提供方案质量保证的一个方面。然而，他们看到了获得能力的障碍，仅仅是他们自己的一般语言熟练程度的门槛水平。
Funding information University of Oxford John Fell Research Fund, Grant/Award Number: 0003998 The growth in academic subjects taught through English, in non-Anglophone countries (English medium instruction, EMI) has been matched by growth in research into its desirability. Research has also indicated that EMI teachers need professional development (PD) to teach effectively. Although PD programmes are available, there is no consensus as to the competencies needed of an EMI teacher, nor of their certification. Our international survey explored teacher perspectives on proposed competencies in relation to the language challenges faced by EMI students and whether teachers believe certification is desirable. Teachers were keen to obtain certification at an international level thereby providing an aspect of programme quality assurance. However, they saw obstacles to obtaining competences beyond merely a threshold level of their own general language proficiency.
