How EMI and multicultural experiences enhance international employability: The roles of intercultural competence and grit
The increasing globalization of higher education requires graduates to demonstrate strong international employability skills. To address this need, this study examines how English as a Medium of Instruction (EMI) and multicultural experience influence students’ perceived graduate international employability (PGIE). Drawing on filter theory and human capital theory, this study proposes a mediation model that highlights the roles of intercultural c…
Multicultural Campus Programming and pre-service teachers’ Creative teaching: A parallel mediation model analysis
While substantial empirical research exists regarding the development of creative teaching abilities through teacher education, there is limited knowledge about how the learning environment can augment the creative teaching skills of pre-service teachers. Using a parallel mediation model, this study examined how pre-service teachers’ perception of multicultural-campus programming, mediated by factors of other-group orientation, empathy quotient, …

Building a case for communities of practice as drivers of innovative teaching in English medium instruction context
Towards a comprehensive effectiveness scale for university students’ perception of English medium instruction in Vietnam and Taiwan: An importance-performance analysis
While in recent years, the introduction of English as a Medium of Instruction (EMI) courses has been increasing in Taiwanese and Vietnamese universities, use of EMI courses is still in an early phase, and their effectiveness remains under-explored in both territories. This study aims to develop an EMI effectiveness scale and apply importance-performance analysis (IPA) to measure student assessment of EMI courses based on that scale. Using the con…
School internationalization in Taiwan: Constructing assessment indicators and future application
This study developed and validated the indicators of school internationalization in elementary and secondary schools in Taiwan to identify their level of internationalization and assess how the same has been implemented in these institutions. The data for the study was obtained from focus group interviews with 14 school internationalization experts and 176 school principals. Subsequently, 145 sample schools were recruited to complete an online qu…
Students’ Intention to Take E-Learning Courses During the Covid-19 Pandemic: A Protection Motivation Theory Perspective
This study proposes a new model for integrating the protection motivation theory (PMT) with the technology acceptance model (TAM) to explore factors affecting students’ intention to attend e-learning courses during the COVID-19 pandemic. A total of 432 valid responses to an online questionnaire were received from freshmen students studying in universities in Vietnam and Taiwan. Structural equation modeling was used to evaluate the proposed resear…
Lecturer teaching styles and student learning involvement in large classes: A Taiwan case study
Previous studies have indicated the challenges posed by large classes in promoting quality education and better student learning. This paper argues that empirically exploring other latent variables inherent in the pedagogical triangle of the teacher, the learner and the content hold a number of promises in elucidating the dynamics of large classes as an emerging phenomenon in global higher education. This study intends to examine how university l…
Monitoring learning-oriented school education: Indicator construction and their application
The role of graduate students’ learning strategies in reducing their English medium instruction avoidance: The mediation effect of language anxiety
In Asia, in order to keep up with internationalization, the English-Medium Instruction (EMI) course has become a phenomenon in higher education. In turn, EMI literature has increasingly focused on the role of instructor’s pedagogy in reducing students’ negative response to EMI courses. Additionally, we further explore, from the students’ perspective, whether students can reduce their anxiety about learning in English by adopting varied learning s…
