Rezensionen

"I am happy to see this innovative collection.... I do not know of another volume with this focus. So, this is a very exciting venture, and I am very pleased to see it."

MaryAnn Christison, University of Utah, Department of Linguistics/Urban Institute for Teacher Education, USA

"This is a very original idea and an innovative publication, certainly in keeping with the times with its attention to autonomy, digital learning, and language learner strategies."

Paul Nation, Victoria University of Wellington, New Zealand

"Language Learning Beyond the Classroom offers a new perspective on autonomouslearning by showing how out-of-class learning can complement classroom-based learning. This shift of perspective is especially timely in an era in which rapidly developing internet-based technologies and opportunities for travel have dramatically expanded affordances for foreign language learning and use beyond the classroom."

Phil Benson, Macquarie University
