商品簡介
Kim (English writing/global business administration, Sungkyunkwan U., Seoul, Korea) presents the first book to join scholarship from the field of teaching English for occupational purposes (EOP) with findings from general occupational training, in an effort to discover how the theories and practices of both fields might complement each other to develop effective foreign language training for adult occupational learners. Combining interviews, observations, surveys, and impromptu conversations with students and faculty involved in workplace English training in Korea, Kim investigates the students' perceptions and the practice of EOP. He then compares their experiences and perceptions of general workplace training to determine issues and challenges of EOP as training, and possible ideas and resources from general training that could enhance the quality and efficiency of EOP instruction. For researchers, practitioners, and scholars in English for specific purposes, applied linguists, and workplace education. Annotation c2008 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
