Abstract

Since the late 1970s Academic English (AE) has increasingly become a central teaching and learning activity in higher education (HE) contexts, both in English-speaking universities and also in many HE institutions around the world (Jordan, 2002). Although the origins of AE, which developed from English for Specific Purposes (ESP), can be traced back to British universities, it rapidly developed internationally under a range of umbrella terms, such as English for Academic Purposes (EAP), English for Specific Academic Purposes (ESAP), college English and study skills, gradually earning its own place in both language teaching and research (Hyland & Jiang, 2021). Although these terms vary in focus and emphasis, they all refer to the teaching, learning, and assessment of the skills and competences needed to succeed in an academic environment (Hyland & Shaw, 2016).
