個人簡介 Self-introduction

鄒文莉為紐約州立大學水牛城校區外語暨英語教學博士。帶領成大團隊建立全國第一個大學部專業英語全校通識外語課程。歷年來主持過科技部整合型計畫、教育部雙語師資認證計畫、縣市政府雙語教育產官學研究計畫、教育部在職教師雙語認證計劃、以及大學雙語教師專業發展中心(EMI PD Center)。近年來更一直在突破自己的專業領域研究框架，透過不斷與國際學者交流及與最新的國際研究接軌，考量臺灣在地英語為學習工具的需求，對現有體制思維重新審視。希望能夠將雙/英語教育滾動式修正到找出適合臺灣的雙語教育未來，能讓臺灣未來的學子真正能夠將英文作為學習及職場競爭的工具，完備國際競合力(global competence)，成爲全球公民。

Wenli Tsou is a Full Professor in the Department of Foreign Languages & Literature and is currently the Director of the Foreign Language Center at National Cheng Kung University, Taiwan. She received her PhD in Foreign and Second Language Education from the State University of New York at Buffalo, U.S. Throughout her productive career as an educational scholar, she has introduced numerous cutting-edge theories and practices to Taiwan’s English and bilingual teacher education. Her research started with introducing pedagogies of picture books and reader theaters in Taiwan’s primary English classrooms. This was followed by her seminal projects focusing on English Teaching and Learning in higher education, contributing to Taiwanese universities’ internationalization effort with professional development projects and publications on English for Specific Purposes (ESP), English-medium instruction (EMI), and global citizenship education. Since 2020, Wenli has been commissioned by the Taiwan Ministry of Education (MOE) to set up in-service professional development programs for bilingual teachers from all over Taiwan. She is also a key promoter for Taiwan MOE’s international education division, responsible for curriculum design and intercultural education implementation in compulsory education to facilitate global competence development. With a team of researchers, Wenli’s most recent research has focused on the links between disciplinary literacy and transknowledging of bilingual education and EMI. She is particularly interested in how these emerging theories and practices can be glocalized in Taiwan. While her research results have been made public at conferences and in scientific publications, they have also been used for designing ESP, EMI, and bilingual teacher education at different educational stages, from primary to higher education. She chairs various international conferences, including the 13th International Conference of English as a Lingua Franca. She has co-edited the following books: Resources for Teaching English for Specific Purposes (2014, Bookman), English as a Medium of Instruction in Higher Education: Implementations & Classroom Practices in Taiwan (2017, Springer), Exploring CLIL: A Resource Book (2018, Bookman), English-Medium Instruction Translanguaging Practices in Asia: Theories, Framework and Implementation in Higher Education (2021, Springer). A Resource Book for University EMI in Taiwan: A Glocalized Design & Practice (2022, Bookman). AI/Digital Enhanced Bilingual Education: 4C 3+ Framework (2024, Smarten Taiwan). ESP Professional Development Design: A Disciplinary Literacy Approach (2026, Bookman).
