Case Studies in Mediation, Online Interaction and Plurilingualism

Abstract

The publication Enriching 21st Century Language Education: The CEFR Companion Volume in practice (North et al., 2022) presents a series of case studies with contributions from 15 countries following the launch of the new edition of the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages – the CEFR Companion Volume (Council of Europe, 2020; henceforth CEFR CV) – at the event CEFR Companion Volume: Language Education for Dynamic and Inclusive Societies: Promoting plurilingual and pluricultural education held in Strasbourg in May, 2018, during which the participants (academics, teachers and experts in various fields) were invited to form networks and plan case studies. This short text seeks to place the resulting volume of case studies in context.
