The challenges of the internationalisation of the curriculum: a pedagogical intervention to promote interculturality and plurilingualism in English-Medium Instruction

Purpose This study presents the design, implementation and results of a pedagogical intervention aimed at Internationalising the Curriculum and developing Global Competence (GC) in an English-Medium Instruction (EMI) class in a Catalan university. The first goal is to unpack different pedagogical strategies which are considered relevant for the design of an internationalised EMI course. The second goal is to evaluate students' reception and compliance/resistance to the intervention, and to assess the extent to which the proposed framework allowed for the development of interculturality and plurilingualism.
