Excellent- More about Enhancing Student Support in Higher Education: A Subject-Focused Approach
This book explores how to support students in Higher Education using language, beyond just written text. It suggests using a combination of written text-based linguistic approaches and non-text-related languages to better help students. The authors argue that this beyond-text subject-based approach can be more effective in supporting students and provide alternatives and justifications for these approaches through theoretical and empirical research. The book is relevant to practitioners, students, teachers, and researchers in Applied Linguistics, TESOL, English Medium Instruction (EMI), EAP, and language education policy.

This comprehensive book delves into the realm of supporting students in higher education through language, with a particular focus on employing a multifaceted approach that combines written text-based linguistic approaches with other non-text-related languages. The authors coined the term "beyond-text subject-based approach" to emphasize the significance of this approach, which they argue can provide more effective support to students.
The book begins by outlining a paradigm of linguistics that posits support as solely achievable through written text-based linguistic approaches. However, the authors subsequently reveal through their extensive research studies that these approaches fall short in effectively supporting students. Consequently, they present alternative strategies and provide theoretical and empirical justifications for them. Additionally, the authors offer practical insights and suggestions for others to adopt similar approaches to enhance the support provided to students in higher education.
This book holds immense appeal to practitioners, students, teachers, and researchers alike in the fields of Applied Linguistics, TESOL, English Medium Instruction (EMI), EAP, and language education policy. Its comprehensive coverage and insightful perspectives make it a valuable resource for anyone seeking to enhance the learning experiences and academic success of students in higher education.
