About this ebook

This book brings together diverse experiences at all levels of language education in Korea, from government to public and private education to business and industry, to identify the origin of the processes of change and the factors influencing their success. The chapters are written by widely respected and well-known academics from the top institutions in Korea and abroad who together cover all aspects of innovation in language education in the region. Each chapter deals with a particular innovation or an innovation in a particular sector and is carefully structured to provide enough background information to understand its specific context, while drawing broader implications for educators in different contexts or countries. The overview and closing chapters set the scene and bring together all the experiences to offer suggestions for a successful integration of innovative practices in language education worldwide. As such, the book will be a rich resource for researchers, students, teachers and practitioners interested in understanding, implementing, or evaluating innovation in language teaching environments globally.
