Contenido principal del artículo

Francisco José Álvarez Gil

Resumen

El presente estudio analiza las condiciones necesarias para implementar asignaturas impartidas con la metodología del inglés como medio de instrucción (EMI) en el Grado en Turismo de la Universidad de Las Palmas de Gran Canaria (ULPGC). En la revisión bibliográfica se examinan algunos de los conceptos relacionados con este método para aclarar diversos enfoques metodológicos que se confunden con frecuencia, a saber, el Aprendizaje Integrado de Contenidos y Lenguas Extranjeras (AICLE), el EMI y el Inglés con Fines Específicos. Con el objetivo de conocer las condiciones específicas necesarias para la implantación de las asignaturas EMI en el Grado en Turismo de la ULPGC, se realiza una revisión de las asignaturas EMI que ya se han implantado en esta institución. A continuación, se presenta una propuesta indicando las condiciones vitales para la implantación de asignaturas EMI en esta titulación.
