Abstract

Local linguistic diversity and growing teacher and student mobility in higher education (HE) around the world have resulted in increasingly multilingual teaching and learning contexts. This has provided HE institutions opportunities to offer instruction in more than one language—typically the local language(s) and English, but also other languages. This chapter provides an overview of different perspectives on integrating content and languages in multilingual HE institutions across various contexts. The overview includes the history, the issues, and the future considerations regarding integrating content and language in higher education (ICLHE) across the different contexts in order to identify local contextual factors that may contribute to the differences in the language policies and practices in HE.
