In light of increasing globalization, this collection makes the case for global citizenship education as a way forward for transforming foreign language learning and teaching to better address current and future global challenges in times of unprecedented change. The volume maps a multi-dimensional approach within foreign language pedagogy to take up the challenge of "educating the global citizen". Drawing on sociocultural, pedagogical, cosmopolitan, digital and civic-minded perspectives, the book explores the challenges in constructing epistemological frameworks in increasingly global environments, the need for developing context-sensitive educational practices, the potential of linking up with work from related disciplines, and the impact of these considerations on different educational settings. The collection reflects an international range of voices, attuned to global and local nuances, to offer a holistic compilation of conceptual innovations to showcase the relevance of global citizenship issues in foreign language education and encourage future research.This book will be of interest to scholars in intercultural education, foreign language education, and language teaching, as well as policymakers and foreign language teachers.The Open Access version of this book, available at www.taylorfrancis.com, has been made available under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 license.

This book provides a much-needed overview of the theory and practice of intercultural service learning (ISL), an approach that combines curricular learning, intercultural encounters and community service. It includes a model that outlines the essential components of this pedagogy and which is intended to serve as a foundation for practitioners developing their projects. Practical examples offer templates and inspiration, while the scholarly examination of the projects demonstrates the approach's potential. The book concludes with considerations on how to assess intercultural and democratic competences in ISL projects and practical implementation guidelines. Suitable for both in-service foreign language educators at all levels and for use in teacher training, the book provides a practical guide to a holistic pedagogy that is increasingly being used by educators keen to engage their students in an ever more interconnected world.

Fremdsprachenunterricht unterliegt stetigem Wandel und zeigt immer neue Facetten. Living Language Teaching greift diesen Gedanken auf und richtet den Fokus auf fremdsprachenunterrichtliche Lehrwerke und Unterrichtsmaterialien in Vergangenheit und Gegenwart sowie deren Entwicklung und Einsatzmöglichkeiten. Das Autorenteam, das sechzehn Kolleginnen und Kollegen aus unterschiedlichen fremdsprachendidaktischen Disziplinen umfasst, bietet einen multiperspektivischen Zugang zum Thema. Im Vordergrund steht dabei die praktische Nutzung von Lehrwerken und Unterrichtsmaterialien in Schule und Hochschule.
