Exploring the boundaries of social inclusion, social media and language
education

- Can the use of social media in language education lead to better social
inclusion? Who benefits? What does it mean?
- What applications can be used? How? Are there any examples of best
practice?
- What is the future of the internet and social media? How will they
affect language learning and intercultural education?
