learning and computer-assisted language learning (CALL) in under-resourced schools and universities in Indonesia, aimed at addressing the learning crisis as indicated by the sharp decline of English Proficiency Index and PISA in the last two decades. Multisensory learning provides a well-rounded learning experience that helps students to accelerate their learning. The authors describe how brain-informed learning tools, such as the Verbotonal Approach, Reading for Emotions, and Aesthetics, can facilitate rich and engaging learning practices, and argues that adopting these practices can allow students to take a more active role in their learning, resulting in improved outcomes. This book will be of interest to readers in the Indonesian and other similar contexts, particularly those with an interest in language education, applied linguistics, CALL and TESOL.
