This resource guide, developed at the National Foreign Language Resource Center at the University of Hawai’i at Manoā, provides research content related to language learning for medical, business and other industries. Each chapter profiles language learning for a specific learner population working in a specific professional context in each of the three categories (medical, business, and other industries). The languages researched include not only widely-studied languages like English and Chinese, but also Polish, Korean and more. Teachers of LSP looking for specific case studies relevant to their learners’ needs would benefit from the information presented here.
