by Sandra Lee McKay Wendy D. Bokhorst-HengPresent-day globalization, migration, and the spread of English have resulted in a great diversity of social and educational contexts in which English learning is taking place.

The rich qualitative interview and textual data presented in this book highlight the situated and multifaceted nature of student feedback literacy. The data also demonstrate the necessity for local tutors to be fully aware of the challenges for international students in engaging with discipline-bounded feedback, and how to adjust instruction and feedback practice accordingly, to foster their students’ success in higher education.This book is essential for researchers and research students in education, applied linguistics, especially feedback fields, and English for academic purposes (EAP) educators and university lecturers who work with international students and use feedback as a teaching device.

International Management and Language (Routledge Studies in International Business and the World Economy)
by Susanne TietzeGlobalization processes have resulted in the emergence of business and management networks in which the sharing of knowledge is of crucial importance. Combining two contemporary and important subject areas – namely that of international management and also language and communication in multi-language contexts – the author of this book presents a wealth of ideas, examples and applications taken from international and global contexts, which show that ‘language matters’ in the pursuit of international business affairs. The book establishes the theoretical core of its main ideas by introducing two orientations (social construction and linguistic relativity) and demonstrates how they can be drawn on to frame and understand the activities of managers. Highly innovative and topical, Susanne Tietze’s book will appeal to students of international management and international human resource management as well as those studying intercultural communication. It is also useful for managers and practitioners who work internationally.
