Multilingual Computer Assisted Language Learning
«
Following ‘the multilingual turn’ in SLA and bilingual education approaches, Buendgens-Kosten and Elsner argue cogently for the multicompetences of learners to be acknowledged in CALL. They coin ‘MCALL’ to foreground the pluralism that best reflects the multilingual realities of individual learners, groups and materials. These realities are further highlighted in this collection that shows the breadth of technologies, their affordances and constraints, applied to facilitate the needs and competences of different groups of language learners.

This inspirational and timely volume demonstrates that we have finally reached a tipping point with respect to the impact of digital technologies on education. In these pages we see the immense potential of new technologies to promote not only learner autonomy but also collaborative learning of languages and academic content both within the classroom and across the globe.

This volume takes strides forward to uncover an overlapping while understudied area in both multilingualism and CALL.
