Abstract:

Telecollaboration, or online intercultural exchange, has become widely 
recognised as an effective way to promote the development of intercultural 
communicative competence and language skills. However, the study and 
implementation of new 2.0 environments such as wikis, Skype, virtual worlds 
and gaming for telecollaboration is still in its infancy. How can these 
multilingual, multimodal, collaborative environments be used to promote 
language and intercultural learning? What are the implications for teachers 
and learners and what new literacies are required? Do they offer an added-
value? This book seeks to answer these questions and many more by 
bringing together the experience and expertise of researchers and 
practitioners alike. The authors offer critical stances, new frameworks and 
practical case studies to help the reader 'navigate' the world of 
telecollaboration 2.0.
