In response to the global COVID-19 pandemic, educators around the world have been forced to re-evaluate and reinvent traditional teaching practices. The shift from face-to-face instruction to online and hybrid learning was swift and transformative, creating both opportunities and challenges for educators, students, and institutions alike. This book critically engages with this new reality, offering insights, research, and strategies that address the evolving needs of language education in HE.The pandemic-induced transition to remote learning has highlighted the resilience and adaptability of educators, as well as the critical role of digital technologies in teaching. The contributors to this volume reflect on these significant changes and investigate how language educators have responded to this new paradigm, exploring key themes including the rise of Computer-Assisted Language Learning (CALL), the integration of Project-Based Language Learning (PBLL), flipped classrooms, Virtual Exchange (VE) and reflective practices like journaling. This edited volume underscores the importance of digital literacy, fostering autonomy, and preparing students for global professional environments, advocating for reform in teacher education and intercultural competence-building. Through a collection of empirical research studies, case analyses, and practical examples, this book presents a wide-ranging perspective on the future of language teaching and the integration of innovative practices that will shape HE in the coming years.…
