| dc.description.abstract | This research study entitled Practices of English Medium Instruction at Community School was conducted to explore the practices of implementing EMI at community school. I used case study research design under qualitative approach to carry out this research work. The population of the research included a community school which is implementing EMI. The data for the study were four teachers who have been teaching in grade six selected as the sample for the study by using non-random purposive sampling. I conducted in-depth interviews with the teachers to elicit the required data. From the analysis and interpretation of the data, it was found that there was lack of teacher training for the EMI teachers at a community school. Likewise, it was also found that EMI enhances language proficiency of the students and it would be very much useful for their higher study, career development, personality development, and communication. However, it shows that due to the lack of sufficient knowledge of English language, reference materials, appropriate environment, teacher training, lack of ICT based materials and linguistics diversity, the practices of EMI seemed to be challenging. This thesis consists of five chapters. The first chapter deals with the introduction of the study which consists of background of the study, statement of the problem, objective s of the study, research questions, rationale of the study, delimitations of the study, and operational definitions of the key terms. Similarly, the second chapter is about the review of theoretical as well as empirical literature and its implications for the study. Moreover, it also includes the conceptual framework. Likewise, the third chapter deals with the methods and procedures of the study. It covers design and method of the study, population, sample and sampling strategy, research tools, sources of data, data collection procedures, data analysis procedures, and ethical considerations. The fourth chapter includes the analysis and interpretation of the data. Finally, the fifth chapter incorporates the findings and conclusion of the study followed by some policy, practice, and further research related recommendation based on the study. References and appendices form the concluding part of this thesis. | en_US |
