Drawing on the concept of resilient healthcare, this book explores multimodally embedded everyday practices of healthcare professionals in the UK and Japan, utilising novel technology, such as eye-tracking glasses, to inform what constitutes good practice.Providing an interdisciplinary examination of the theories and rationales of resilient healthcare, the book engages with a range of case studies from a variety of healthcare settings in the UK and Japan and considers the application of advanced technologies for visualising healthcare interactions and implementing virtual healthcare simulation. In doing so, it showcases a number of multimodal approaches and highlights the potential benefits of multimodal and multidisciplinary approaches to healthcare communication research for enhancing resilience in their local contexts.

This edited book compiles pedagogical practices and studies of Content and Language Integrated Learning (CLIL) from two sites: Spain, where CLIL has been widely implemented for more than a decade, and Japan, where the CLIL approach is still in its relative infancy, and quickly gaining momentum.

This edited book examines the phenomenon of English as a Lingua Franca (ELF) in the Japanese context, using multilingualism as a lens through which to explore language practices and attitudes in what is traditionally viewed as a monolingual, monocultural setting.

This book provides an overview of different approaches to research on language and multimodality in social interactions. The author examines five strands - multimodal discourse analysis, multimodal corpus analysis, conversation analysis, gesture studies, and human multimodal communication - providing rationales and case studies to elucidate how each approach to language and multimodality has evolved, describing its theories, methodological frameworks, and positioning them in the field. The volume foregrounds how research on multimodal social interactions contributes both to theoretical development and to social problem-solving, and it will be of interest to a range of readers with backgrounds in fields including language and multimodal research, communication in social interaction, discourse and pragmatics, and applied linguistics.
