This book brings together a variety of perspectives and interventions related to online and remote language teaching. Aimed at scholars and language teachers, as well as students of language pedagogy, these perspectives are drawn from diverse teaching contexts, although the findings they share can be applied across different levels and target languages. This volume also includes reflection on implementing these ideas during and after the remote learning necessitated by the COVID-19 pandemic. This volume will be especially valuable in the coming years, as educators and researchers work to understand the experiences of teachers and learners during the pandemic, and as the remote teaching precipitated by recent events increases interest in online learning. As online language course offerings continue to grow and develop, this volume will be a rich resource for researchers, instructors, and students interested in better understanding the diverse practices and methods that can be employed in online language teaching.

This book offers a clear analysis of the problems facing slow learners, their psychology and the types of education open to them. Dr Brown reassesses the needs of disabled children and adults in the context of their families, with the emphasis on the practical level of activi...
The articles collected in this volume offer the most various access to the discussed questions on norm and variation. In their entirety, they reflect the current discussion of the topic. Focusing on the object languages German and English ensures a high level of topical consistency. On the other hand, the four large topic areas (emergence and change of norms and grammatical constructions; relationship of codes of norms and 'real' language usage; competition of standard and non-standard language norms; and subsistent norms of minority languages and «institutionalised second-language varieties») cover a large range of relevant issues, thereby certainly giving an impetus to new and further investigations.
