It contains contributions from language teaching professionals working all over the world in different contexts and at different stages of development, and covers a variety of languages. Based on practical experience and research, it includes work on learner autonomy and support; theories of distance language learning; the development of intercultural competence; methodology and course design; different learning environments and how to make best use of them, and language teacher education. These contributions have been collected together in one volume to encourage the establishment of collaborative links between practitioners in different institutions and around the world and inspire more related research in the future to guide our understanding and reflection on evolution and change within the field. 410 0$aNew perspectives on language and education. 606 $aLanguage and languages$xStudy and teaching 606 $aDistance education 610 $acourse design. 610 $adistance education. 610 $aintercultural competence. 610 $alanguage teacher education. 610 $alearner autonomy. 610 $alearning environments. 610 $ateaching of languages at a distance. 615 0$aLanguage and languages$xStudy and teaching. 615 0$aDistance education. 676 $a418/.0071 701 $aHolmberg$b Bo?rje$0561903 701 $aShelley$b Monica$01631789 701 $aWhite$b Cynthia$f1956-$01631790 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910817209403321 996 $aDistance education and languages$93970583 997 $aUNINA
