    Why don't you give exact delivery time?

    Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

    Long description:

    Academic Literacy in English for Academic Purposes presents theory- and research-informed teaching approaches to EAP, underpinned by the concept of academic literacy.


    Each chapter begins with a discussion of the relevant theoretical frameworks, followed by an overview of recent research studies, before proposing teaching approaches to support students in these areas.


    The book:



    • challenges narrow conceptions of EAP by emphasising its core mission of developing academic literacy across disciplines

    • promotes genre-specific teaching approaches for the development of academic literacy

    • advocates the integration of academic literacy instruction into subject curricula and discusses different types and levels of collaboration between EAP practitioners and subject lecturers

    • discusses the opportunities of using translanguaging as a pedagogical resource in EAP/academic literacy instruction

    • examines the challenges generative AI poses to higher education and emphasises the important role of EAP practitioners in guiding its effective and ethical use

    This book serves as an ideal resource for English for Academic Purposes (EAP) practitioners, subject lecturers in English Medium Instruction (EMI) contexts, teacher educators, as well as university policymakers who seek ways of improving EAP and academic literacy instruction in their institutions.
