Curriculum development in English for academic purposes: a guide to practice. Martin Guardado and Justine Light (2020). Palgrave, Cham, 134 pages, ISBN: 978-3-030-47467-6.

Abstract

To facilitate learners’ development of skills needed to study in English-medium academic settings, English for Academic Purposes (EAP) came into being as an important area of English language teaching (Charles & Pecorari, 2016). Due to the rich diversity involved in EAP contexts, EAP practice encounters unique challenges. To address these challenges, curriculum design tailored to EAP is a necessity. The volume provides a timely contribution to this specific filed.
