Looking Back, Looking Ahead: An Interview with Professor ZhaoHong Han

Abstract

On April 8, 2021, we had the great pleasure of speaking over Zoom with Professor ZhaoHong Han, the founding editor of SALT, which was originally called Working Papers in TESOL and Applied Linguistics. In celebration of the journal’s 20thanniversary, we discussed the motivation and vision behind establishing a web journal, future directions, essential qualities of an outstanding original research article, and advice for early career scholars and graduate students who are starting out to get their work published in journals.
