The first part of question about what strategies use, in my case the reading activity is very common, but in english its neccesary use short documents and with a less level of especifically topics, to assure the students can read it and understand it. The second part, about how engage, the answer is direct questions, or dialogues, but in this case, is neccesary use the writted language because according the level, experience, pronunciation could be different or confuse, then, its possible that present good ideas, but his partners dont understand it by his accent pronunciation, in this case, use the writted language could work. Finally, for production and reflection is possible use oral expositions, but for bring more ensurance, is posible use some tecnological tools, for example podcasts or videos.

In my subjects, students seek to apply their knowledge in health sciences in a practical way, they seek to produce knowledge and research that promotes health in their patients. They want to know how to give adequate treatment to people who want special nutrition.What elements from the previous sections studied could you use for your EMI course?
I consider that I can use elements such as establishing and maintaining clear objectives, connecting the previous lessons, planning a final activity of the course where the knowledge learned can be evaluated, continuing with gamification to increase the motivation of the students.Strategies for effective study time promotion: Active learning methods, clear objectives, periodic assessments, and providing resources for self-study.
Difference in English: Yes, the language of instruction may require additional support for English language learners, such as bilingual materials or simplified explanations.
Engaging students: Discussions, group activities, multimedia resources, and real-world examples.
Engaging in EMI classroom: Emphasize language development through English-rich content, use visual aids, and encourage collaborative projects that promote language use.
Student expectations: Active participation, critical thinking, problem-solving, and reflective assignments.
Elements for EMI course: English language support materials, language immersion activities, and cross-cultural content to enhance language skills.I usually prepare content that will be relevant to students and also activities that can promote some kind of collaboration among them. I think that in English things change because we have to think about content and language and how to integrate them in the activities that we are proposing in our classes. I usually engage my students by preparing some questions related to the topic that we will be discussing, I also like to do some ‘think – pair – share’ activities to activate their schemata and promote critical thinking from the beginning. They usually have to present their discoveries, sometimes in formal, but also in informal presentations, I like to ask them to create posters and use their creativity to share with their classmates what they’ve learned in our classes. I usually prepare some ‘exit tickets’ to promote some reflection. I really like the idea of ESA, and I liked the concept of AESA, I’ll certainly try to use it in the near future.

In my class each student prepares scientific papers and makes scientific presentations on the progress of their work associated with the doctoral thesis. The students receive feedback from the classmates, from the guest lecturers and from the course professor, in this case me.
When they do the presentation and written document in English they require more time. They elaborate the article and the presentation according to a checklist, one week before the session in which they are going to present the preliminary version, they send it for suggestions. Then they make a presentation only with the classmates and the teacher, in this case me.
The students receive feedback, make suggestions for adjustments in terms of form and oral and written content, adjust the presentation and resubmit it, the class peers ant the teacher again makes suggestions. Finally, the students make the necessary adjustments and make the final presentation to the invited experts, one of whom is a foreign professor who speaks English.
Students are engaged in my class because from the beginning it is presented to them that the course aims to contribute to strengthen the quality of at least one study associated with the doctoral thesis or the complete proposal, depending on the personal interest of each student. They are offered the opportunity to present papers and make presentations before expert professors who ask them questions and make recommendations to strengthen their theoretical and methodological mastery, as well as to strengthen their synthesis and argumentation skills, both written and oral, for the presentation of at least one proposal or final study report associated to the doctoral dissertation or for the defense of the dissertation.
Based on the elements presented in this unit, it seemed interesting and feasible for my class to include sustainable development objectives, to know the level of expression in English that each student has in order to encourage that regardless of their level of English, they can orally express their comments and recommendations to their classmates; as well as to structure the class session in different sequences taking into account: commitment-study-activity.To promote effective study time, I incorporate active learning strategies, such as interactive discussions, problem-solving activities, and group projects. I provide clear learning objectives and resources for self-study, and I encourage students to use technology for research and exploration.
In class, I engage students through various means, including open-ended questions, multimedia presentations, and hands-on activities. I also encourage peer-to-peer interaction and critical thinking by fostering a collaborative learning environment.
In an EMI classroom, I would integrate language development activities within subject matter instruction. I try to involve topics that are not totally new, or start the lesson focusing on their previous knowledge.
In my class, students are expected to actively participate in discussions, demonstrate problem-solving skills through projects, and reflect on their learning progress. They are encouraged to articulate their thoughts and engage in self-assessment to enhance their metacognitive skills.
Elements from previous sections, such as technology integration, personalized learning, and global awareness, could be applied to an EMI course. Additionally, the emphasis on language development and cultural competence would be crucial in fostering effective communication and understanding in a diverse, multilingual classroom.On the engage stage, I usually connect to previous lesson by asking some of them to remember and even explain some of the topics seen before. I also try to make them understand that we will build new knowledge from it.
On an EMI classroom, I definitively will start off with short games.
It depends on the topic, but my students usually expect to reflect on how the topic we are talking about affects their own lives and the lives of the people around them. In some cases, they expect to write an article.What strategies do you use to promote effective study time in your class?
I often use problem-solving activities in groups and then a discussion session with feedback. I use brainstorm and pop quizzes.
Will it be different in English? Why? I’m already having a EMI course so I had to change some activities and to give the students more support with the vocabulary, I relay more in brainstorming that in problem-solving by themselves but definitely I keep my methodology of working in peers to solve a clinical case.How do you usually engage your students in class?
I start asking questions about the topic we are about to learn, I often do this activity at the beginning of asking 3 questions “what do I know, what do I want to know? and what did I learn” and we finish the class with the last question.
How will you engage them differently in your EMI classroom?
I am experiencing that using videos and visual-aids are helping my students to engage better than just writing in their notebook the 3 “W” questions.
What are your students usually expected to do in your class in terms of production and reflection?
Problem-solving of clinical cases that I share with them and at the end of the class we reinforce with feedbackWhat elements from the previous sections studied could you use for your EMI course?
Definitely emotional validation, rapport, humanism, different learning styles, and more of the “dos” of the ESA and less “don’ts”, I recognize that in my practice I can abuse of some “dont’s” like overuse independency, assuming they’ll know and just ask hem if they got it. I think it is for me really important to work more in the “S” of ESA.
I start each lesson by outlining clear objectives and expectations for what students will learn during the class. I think this helps students focus on their study goals. I then incorporate active learning techniques, such as group discussions, debates, and hands-on activities, to keep students engaged and encourage them to apply what they’ve learned. It’s also very important to connect language learning to real-life situations, making the content more relevant and motivating for students. I always ask the students to brainstorm where and how they think their learnings from the lesson will help them in real life.
Multimodal Materials: I use a mix of written, audio, and visual materials to cater to different learning styles and provide a well-rounded language learning experience.
Peer Interaction: I encourage peer interaction through pair and group work, which promotes collaborative learning and allows students to practice speaking and listening skills.
Feedback and Reflection: I provide regular feedback on students’ language use and encourage self-reflection. This helps them identify areas for improvement and it gives them a sense of ownership of their learning.
Technology Integration: I leverage technology, such as language learning apps and online resources, to enhance language practice and provide students with additional study tools.I utilize active learning methods, clear learning objectives, and effective time management techniques to encourage productive study sessions in my classes. When it comes to English-mediated instruction (EMI), the focus remains on engagement, but the importance of clarity becomes even more pronounced due to potential language barriers. Collaborating with colleagues allows for diverse insights and the refinement of teaching strategies. In my classroom, student engagement is fostered through interactive discussions and activities, and in EMI, additional support may be needed to accommodate language proficiency levels. Students in my class are typically expected to actively participate, generate content, and engage in reflective practices. The preceding sections emphasize the significance of clarity, relevance, and content adaptation, which are particularly crucial in an EMI context for effective communication and comprehension.
For different strategies used for students, teachers have to comunicate them the clare objectivs. It is very important using a current bibliography and innovative resources. The use of English like a different language shouldnt be a problem and a stress situation. Starting from the level to understand, listening, speaking, is neccesary to design each activity.
So, engage is the first way to transmite to students an atmosphere of confidentiality and fun. Some ways to engage is through games, challenges or any activity that allows them to participate without fraid to make a mistake.
Listening the opinion about a topic for me is a good student´s engage. If the class is in other language, the engage´s fase will be directed to enter into trust but leaving confort zone.It is very important to design very creative learning activities so that students are engaged and can learn in innovative ways.
First of all I get to know my SS, their learning types and a little bit of their personalities, some might be knowledgeable but shy, some need more action in class.
I try to relate the purpose of the course to our every day lives, raise some initial awareness. Brain teaser questions are our favorite.
I try to use 100,% target language or L2 or L3. A lot of visual support.What strategies do you use to promote effective study time in your class?

always my students expect to share the different results or production of every partner of the class, because it is so important to see and listen to the task and goals reached for the students.What elements from the previous sections studied could you use for your EMI course?
I use the strategy ESA and use the different digital tools for the english tourism classes in a COIL.
