Reviews
""Compared to previous edited volumes on OIE... this book sheds more light on the recent university-level OIE projects. The text excels at providing breadth and sophistication in addressing discrete, task-based language learning pedagogies whilst keeping in mind a critically framed holistic perspective of developing intercultural communication competence. One of the book's primary advantages is that it explores highly diverse OIE practices, incorporating the roles of university education policy makers as well as OIE practioners, which will likely be useful for those planning for the future design and implementaion of an OIE project."" -- Moonyoung Park, The Chinese University of Hong Kong ""The major strengths of this volume are epitomised by the remarkable attempts at the external and internal integration of OIE. External integration is represented by chapter author's efforts to promote a tripartite integration of policy, pedagogy and practice in OIE (as the volume’s sub-title rightfully suggests). Dedicated chapters (De Wit, Guth, Wilson, Tudini) provide valuable insights into the two way contribution between institutional policies and OIE, highlighting the latter as a worthy endeavour in the internationalisation agenda."" - Zhiwei Wu, Guangdong University of Foreign Studies in JOURNAL OF MULTILINGUAL AND MULTICULTURAL DEVELOPMENT, 2017 ""...the book in question stands out in both fields, OIE and internationalization, as a recent and valuable contribution. Researchers, teachers, and practitioners can benefit from an enlightening text that is fundamental for education in general and language teaching in particular."" - José Marcelo Feitas de Luna, Universidade do Vale do Itajaí, and Rodrigo Schaefer, Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina in Revista Brasiliera de Educação
