Articles, commentaries and reviews on (but not necessarily limited to) the following areas are welcomed: • educational approaches in which additional languages are used for the learning and teaching of both content and language (CLIL). • language learning, teaching, and/or evaluation practices aimed at fostering cognition and metacognition though language or content. • the use of information and communication technologies to foster communicative competences enhancing cognition, metacognition and the learning of language, content, or both. • the learning of culture and/or intercultural competences in or through additional languages. • teacher professional development initiatives in the aforementioned areas.
