Abstract:

This book is the first substantive scholarly book on project-based and
cross-curricular language learning using digital technologies. The book
includes new empirical research on project-based language learning utilizing
CALL technologies and conceptual and theoretical chapters that address new
methodological approaches for researching project-based and cross-curricular
language learning in digitally-mediated learning environments. This dual focus
distinguishes the volume from previous books on project-based learning in
which digital technologies have not been the main focus. CALL research
involving a variety of languages is also offered.<br>
The book is timely in that, inspired by OECD reports and curriculum reforms in
several countries, a repositioning and re-evaluation of foreign language
education in school-based education has been taking place in which foreign
language learning is taught in a multi-disciplinary approach involving an
emphasis on collaborative literacies, including problem-solving, civic
engagement, social justice and telecollaboration. In this mix, language
learning, particularly driven by developments in CLIL (content and integrated
language learning), is being taught as one of several disciplines in a way
that firmly emphasizes communication and creativity rather than a traditional
functional approach.
