A total of 19 participants consisted of graduate students and faculty members from the University of Tokyo and other universities. Dr. Galloway gave a lecture entitled “Researching local realities in the growing global phenomenon of English Medium Instruction (EMI) in higher education,” followed by a discussion among the participants. They shared their ideas based on their own experiences, and the discussion proceeded in a friendly atmosphere. The participants deepened their learning of the findings of EMI and how it is practiced and also the bonds of the EMI community through the lecture and discussion.
