Francisco J. Álvarez Gil, Margarita Sánchez Cuervo, Elena Quintana Toledo
This volume brings together studies which represent current perspectives on second language learning and teaching in relation to language and culture in intercultural contexts. The authors reflect on and analyse a variety of topics such as the significance of recognizing and valuing heritage speakers in intercultural contexts, the role of multimodal mediation strategies in language teaching materials, and the impact of intercultural variation on language assessment. Their contributions provide a unique lens through which we can view the intricate relationship between language and culture in second language settings where learners of different cultural backgrounds are involved. Overall, the chapters contribute to the ongoing scholarly discourse in the field of applied linguistics and language education in intercultural contexts.
