Abstract:

This volume sheds light on Creativity and Innovation in Language Education as
key issues for the development of personal, professional and social
competences and aims at highlighting the relevance of such concepts which
education at any level, in any sector and at any time should continuously
stimulate and enhance. The prefaces and the interrelated sections explore the
concept of creativity linked with issues such as cultures and language use,
language teaching, business settings, technology. This is carried out
following theoretical and practical perspectives which integrate with each
other.

The volume is published in a historical moment in Europe in which the European
Commission is celebrating the 10th Anniversary of the Barcelona Agreement
(2002-2012), which emphasized the importance of learning two languages in
addition to the mother tongue. The volume reflects on strategies for achieving
these objectives, while underlining the belief that creativity is a skill
which needs to be identified, stimulated and nurtured for the benefit of the
entire society.
