Languages for Specific Purposes in Educational Contexts

Scholarship in LSP studies is nowadays developing at an unprecedented rate reflecting the growing complexity, diversity and dynamicity of professional domains and their discourses. This volume sets out to disseminate the results of practicioners’ research carried out in various occupational and educational settings. Ranging from Business, Law and Logistics to Music, Medicine and Veterinary Medicine, the contributors examine in their chapters the numerous challenges faced when teaching specialised languages in these domains. This book is intended primarily for LSP researchers and practicioners but it should be of interest to anyone with a professional interest in teaching specialised languages in occupational contexts.
