A systematic review of English medium instruction in higher education: An update of Macaro et al. (2018)

Heath Rose, Kari Şahan, Minhui Wei, Ikuya Aizawa et al.

Short summary

An updated systematic review of 196 empirical studies (2016-2023) finds English Medium Instruction (EMI) in higher education positively impacts receptive language skills and vocabulary, with mixed results for productive skills. EMI does not negatively affect subject attainment, and challenges often diminish with exposure.
