Abstract:

Compared with STEM fields, foreign language (FL) education and second language
acquisition have only slowly embraced open education and the new knowledge
ecologies it produces. FL educators may have been hesitant to participate in
the open education movement due to a lack of research which investigates the
benefits and challenges of FL learning and teaching in open environments. This
book contextualizes open education in FL learning and teaching via an
historical overview of the movement, along with an in-depth exploration of how
the open movement affects FL education beyond the classroom context; fills the
research void by exploring aspects of open second language learning and
teaching across a range of educational contexts; and illustrates new ways of
creating, adapting and curating FL materials that are freely shared among FL
educators and students. This book is open access under a CC BY ND licence.
