Beyond the Boundaries: Changing Contexts in Language Learning

McGraw-Hill World Languages is pleased to announce our collaboration with the Northeast Conference on the Teaching of Foreign Languages in the publication of their annual conference report, commencing with the 2001 report. The chapters in Beyond the Boundaries reflect and comment on the new contexts for language learning that continue to emerge in this country. These changes, motivated by factors such as changing societal attitude towards language learning, globalization of U.S. economy, and increased global awareness, include a growing interest in study-abroad opportunities, community-based outreach programs, and life-long learning. Beyond the Boundaries is ideal for use in teacher education and methods courses, or for undergraduate and graduate seminars that deal with issues in language education or language acquisition.
