Reviews
“The book represents a perfect encounter between theory and practice. … the book is instructive, informative, and inspirational. In this sense, it is a welcome addition to the existing literature regarding LAC and CLIL.” (Ye Zhu, Applied Linguistics, Vol. 40 (6), December, 2019)
“With the publication of this book, teachers, teacher educators, advanced students and researchers can welcome a user-friendly guide to integrating subject-area content and language skills for English language learners. Based on many years’ practical experience with teachers and courses, Lin provides a sound research-based account of how to use a register and genre approach to issues of teacher development and pedagogical content knowledge, cross-subject collaborations, joint curriculum design, and balanced assessment, illustrated with numerous real-world examples. Particularly to be welcomed are the thoughtful review of the research on different approaches and the candid and critical discussion of how to serve students’ best interests while maintaining an honest intellectual commitment to justice, diversity, and creativity. Highly recommended.” (Professor Jay Lemke, University of California, San Diego, Author of “Talking Science: Language, Learning, and Values”)
