Technology-Mediated Crisis Response in Language Studies

Crises, such as the COVID-19 pandemic, create challenges and opportunities. In the face of the global pandemic educators, students, and institutions around the globe adjusted continuously to the ever-changing conditions of the pandemic. The emergency remote teaching and learning (ERLT) conditions of the pandemic highlighted inequities, created new inequities, and were a catalyst for innovation, adaptability, and flexibility. This volume captures some of the lessons learned during and as a result of the ERLT conditions and makes recommendations for procedures, policies, and practices for a crisis-prepared "new normal" in language education. The contributions within this volume represent global perspectives and provide implications for current and future challenges in language teaching and technology from the perspective of educators as well as students.
