About the Book

This book considers the past, present and future directions of innovation in US-based Intensive English Programs (IEPs), which provide international students with an immersion-style environment for learning academic English, prior to matriculating into a full-time college or university degree program. IEPs frequently serve as sites for pre-service teacher preparation, curricular experimentation and research, and yet little published work takes a critical look at the advantages and shortcomings of such programs. The chapters in this book provide a nuanced view of this microcosm of the English language teaching industry, demonstrating the various ways that IEPs have impacted and continue to influence the wider fields of Applied Linguistics and TESOL. They emphasize the unique positioning of IEPs within higher education and describe the various ways IEP practitioners can influence their host institutions and beyond.

Review :
A one-of-a-kind volume on innovation in the context of Intensive English Programs (IEPs). Chapter authors chronicle the past, explore important contemporary issues and consider future trajectories. This is a must-read for IEP teachers, administrators and scholars, as well as other ELT professionals in the US and elsewhere. A stellar contribution to the professional literature. The ever-changing profile of our students’ backgrounds and needs requires innovation, and Intensive English Programs (IEPs) deliver. This volume articulates the history of constant innovation that permeates the field, and many chapters close with suggestions for future innovative work. I strongly recommend this book to IEP and international education leaders alike to understand what IEPs are and how they support the international education aims of their institutions. With contributions from experts, this book provides a nuanced view of Intensive English Programs (IEPs) at US universities and is sure to be an immensely valuable read. It is the first attempt to go beyond discussing the administrative aspects of IEPs to delve into their innovations, which are of great interest in the fields of TESOL and applied linguistics. ...a well-written and thorough exploration of what IEP innovation means at US universities. Although the IEPs discussed here are US-centered, this volume could be relevant for many language programs, program administrators, researchers, and applied linguists around the world. This book will be of great interest to IEP educators who are looking to innovate in their programs, but also to applied linguists and ESL/EFL teachers who are interested in reflecting on their own working environments because the issues covered can address particular needs and challenges that may arise in varied contexts.
