Foreign Language Learning: The Role of Language, Culture, and Literacy sheds light on the intricate and dynamic interplay between language learning, cultural understanding, and literacy development. Written by distinguished international contributors, this book offers a comprehensive exploration of key topics and innovative practices in foreign language education. Split into three sections, the intersectionality of language, culture, and literacy is brought to light in a holistic manner.In the language section, the chapters delve into areas such as language awareness, technology-enhanced teaching and assessment as well as plurilingual testing. The culture section addresses the topics of identity, intercultural collaborative learning and autobiographical methods for fostering cultural understanding. Finally, in the literacy section, the contributors discuss the development of reading skills, digital literacies and feedback literacies. Altogether, the book combines theoretical reflections, empirical insights, innovative teaching practices and emerging technologies to create engaging and effective learning environments and will be useful to academics and practitioners alike.This publication honors the intellectual curiosity and transformative pedagogy of Professor Dr. Claudia Finkbeiner as well as the enduring contributions she has made to the field. It serves as a valuable resource for educators, researchers, and language enthusiasts, providing a holistic understanding of foreign language education in a globalized world.

The book explores the novel field of lexical and conceptual awareness in L2 reading from both a theoretical and an empirical perspective. The theoretical part consists of a thorough literature review of the key terms. The empirical part presents an in-depth analysis of L2 learners’ lexical and conceptual awareness/challenges based on text and worksheet data as well as 110 hours of video material. In total, data from 156 L2 learners participating in video-taped collaborative reading scenarios and the corresponding stimulated recall sessions have been analyzed in a primarily qualitative manner. The results demonstrate the multidimensionality of the two major constructs and highlight learners’ need for further support. Theoretical, methodological and practical recommendations are provided.

Feedback spielt eine entscheidende Rolle im Lernprozess. Doch welche Möglichkeiten gibt es, Lernprozesse durch digitales Feedback zu unterstützen? Dieses Buch bietet Lehrenden und Studierenden ein wissenschaftlich fundiertes Orientierungs- und Anwendungswissen zu digitalen Feedbackmethoden. Diese können nicht nur im Online- oder Hybridunterricht eingesetzt werden, sondern auch den Präsenzunterricht bereichern. Die Vorzüge und Grenzen der jeweiligen digitalen Feedbackmethoden werden diskutiert und Umsetzungsempfehlungen abgeleitet. Dies umfasst u.a. schriftliches Feedback im Texteditor, in Cloud-Dokumenten, in Chats, Diskussionsforen, Wikis, Umfragen und E-Mails sowie multimodales Feedback in Videokonferenzen und per Audio-, Video- und Bildschirmaufnahme. Darüber hinaus werden Vorschläge gegeben, um verschiedene Methoden sinnhaft miteinander zu kombinieren und Lerndialoge anzuregen.
