Come and be a part of the captivating 2024 Fundamentals of EMI Pedagogy and Teaching Techniques organized by the EMI Resource Center at National Chengchi University! 

The program focuses on EMI Pedagogy and Teaching Techniques. Spanning over eight weeks, the workshop starts on August 5 and ends on September 30, 2024. Learn with us every Monday from 10:00 am to 12:00 pm (Taiwan Time). Participants who complete the designated courses will receive a training certificate provided by AIT. *There are five compulsory courses and three elective courses (choose one).

This course begins with an introduction to EMI (English as a Medium of Instruction), covering its background, definitions, and student learning needs. Next, we focus on evaluating learning by emphasizing clear student learning outcomes and assessment development. We then explore lecturing and interactivity in an EMI classroom, guiding you to adapt materials and use effective questioning techniques to interact with your students. Finally, we will conduct two microteaching sessions where participants present demo lessons, receive peer feedback, and practice EMI skills under expert guidance. 

We are pleased to invite Dr. Carolyn Chiung-Yao Ho as our instructor. Dr. Ho holds a Ph.D. in Higher Education Administration from the University of Texas at Austin. She is a Professor and Founding Faculty member of the ESOL program at Lone Star College-CyFair in Cypress, Texas. Dr. Ho has also served as a Fulbright Scholar in TEFL training and as an English Language Specialist, where she has coached and mentored K-16 instructors in bilingual and multilingual educational settings. Her recent professional experience includes consulting for National Sun-Yat Sen University and National Kaohsiung Normal University in Taiwan, focusing on strategic goals for bilingual education and enhancing teacher-training programs in EMI/CLIL instruction and STEM+A.

We encourage you to seize this opportunity to enhance your professional growth and network with peers and EMI specialists. We look forward to your participation!
