Language learning and professionalization in higher education: pathways to preparing learners and teachers in/for the 21st century (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9782490057740)

In this volume, language learning and professionalization are explored by addressing the existing gap between pressing needs for enhanced soft skills in work environments wherein technology-mediated, multilingual communication is increasingly the norm, and current foreign language teaching and learning offerings in higher education. Considering theoretical, methodological, and pedagogical perspectives for preparing language learners and teachers in/for the 21st century, this volume's eight chapters underscore that research findings should inform the design of learning experiences so that people's communication needs in fast-changing work environments are met and the link between language education and professionalization, within a lifelong learning perspective, is sustained.
