Presentation on Where they’re coming from: roles for English textbooks where lectures are in foreign languages

Description

International students may be used to textbooks in English with other activities in another language. Lecturers may accommodate to potential reading difficulties, not necessarily replicated in UK HE. A corpus of 15 Swedish-language lectures shows that awareness-raising is a persistent feature, but the main adaptation is a fairly univocal approach. This might produce expectations at odds with those of British universities.
