Innovation in Language Learning and Teaching: The Case of the Nordics
Edited by Pia Sundqvist, Liss Kerstin Sylvén, and Hayo Reinders
In Innovation in Language Learning and Teaching: The Case of the
Nordics, the aim is to shed light on this region with its fascinating
linguistic landscape and long tradition of language learning and
teaching research. People from the Nordics—Denmark, Finland, Iceland,
Norway, Sweden, including relevant territories—have always needed to
be knowledgeable in other languages, since their respective majority
languages are spoken by a limited number of individuals. This volume
aims to showcase the state-of-the-art of current research on language
learning and teaching in the Nordics.
