Eclipsing Expectations

 

   

 We are very pleased to announce that the conference proceedings of the 2nd International Conference on Language Education, Eclipsing Expectations, have now been published and are freely available in the form of an ebook with the title Expectations Eclipsed in Foreign Language Education and the ISBN 978-605-4348-22-0.


 

We would like to express our thanks for the contributions made to this multifaceted publication which aims to capture the spirit of the collaborative exploration of the challenging and inspiring journey of learners and educators in the field of language education.

The ebook,  Expectations Eclipsed in Foreign Language Education, is a collection of selected papers, summaries and experiential essays presented at our conference.

Unlike traditional proceedings where the papers are categorized under various themes these papers stand individually and as a whole, leaving the reader to form their own connections.

In this way, the proceedings reflect the perspectives, ideas, experiences and findings of the delegates’ inspirational journey into Eclipsing Expectations.

We believe that these various pathways and webs of knowledge will contribute to the whole multidimensional perspectives of collective experience for all readers of this volume.

By clicking on the ebook title below, we invite you to reflect and travel beyond our eclipse and enjoy this third phase of our journey into Expectations Eclipsed in Foreign Language Education.
