In both fields, there have been methodological shifts towards 'task-based' and 'problem-based learning'. In addition, both fields have broadened their focus on clinical expertise and linguistic skills to address issues of cultural competence. English in Medical Education responds to these changes by re-imagining the language classroom in medical settings as an arena for the exploration of values and professional identity. The chapters cover topics such as the nature of cultural competence; how to understand spoken discourse in a range of medical settings; the use of tasks and problems in language education for medics; the development of critical skills and the use of literature and visual media in language education for doctors. It will interest everyone teaching English for Medical Purposes.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Peih-Ying Lu,John Corbett\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1847697755\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781847697752\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Multilingual Matters Limited\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/13\/2012\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 232\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.61lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.27h x 5.83w x 0.48d","brand":"Peih-Ying Lu","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48445806444799,"sku":"9781847697752","price":45.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_856e55c8-22aa-43f6-97c4-a1ac8f896f20.jpg?v=1777220775","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/english-in-medical-education-peih-ying-lu-9781847697752","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
