Subject: Editorial change John Benjamins TBLT series

 
John Benjamins is please to announced that as of volume 14, Marta
González-Lloret (University of Hawai'i at Manoa) will succeed Martin Bygate
(Lancaster University) as editor of the book series Task-Based Language
Teaching (TBLT), and join John M. Norris (Educational Testing Service) and
Kris Van den Branden (KU Leuven).

Task-Based Language Teaching (TBLT) is an educational framework for the theory
and practice of teaching second or foreign languages. It is based on a
constellation of ideas issuing from philosophy of education, theories of
second language acquisition, empirical findings on effective instructional
techniques, and the exigencies of language learning in contemporary society.
Though there is broad interest in the potential value of TBLT to foster
worthwhile language teaching and learning, there is also considerable
diversity in the theoretical scope, applied practice, and research that
corresponds with the TBLT name.

In concert with current interest in Task-Based Language Teaching, this book
series is devoted to the dissemination of TBLT issues and practices, and to
fostering improved understanding and communication across the various clines
of TBLT work. As series editors, we seek to publish cutting-edge work that
defines and advances the domain. Empirical research, theoretical discourse,
and well-informed practical applications of TBLT constitute the core features
highlighted in the series. We welcome edited as well as authored volumes, and
we invite submissions related to the full diversity of language education
contexts, including bi- and multi-lingual, heritage, second, foreign, child,
and adult language learning.

The targeted audiences for this series include students, scholars,
practitioners, and policy makers around the globe. Key among these are:

1. University undergraduate and graduate students engaged in courses of study
related to language teaching, applied linguistics, second language studies,
second language acquisition, and other fields.
2. Academics conducting research and teaching on TBLT, language pedagogy,
second language acquisition, and related disciplines.
3. Educators and policy makers concerned with work at the interface between
instructional practice and the value of language learning in schools and for
the benefit of individuals and society.
