Abstract

In line with global trends, Taiwan began to promote bilingual education, leading to the proliferation of English-Medium Instruction (EMI) courses across diverse educational institutions. By applying the data envelopment analysis (DEA) method, this study evaluates the effectiveness of EMI courses on student learning outcomes by studying students taking EMI courses in an information engineering department at a university in eastern Taiwan. Through analysis and interpretation of data obtained from questionnaire surveys, this study aims to provide insights into enhancing teaching and learning practices in EMI environments.
