In recent years, there has been a significant surge in interest in digital multilingual identity within the fields of applied linguistics and language education, encompassing a wide range of new variables and realities of life. These include translanguaging, heightened multilingualism, linguistic superdiversity, multimodal computer-mediated communication, and even social justice and forensics. As virtual connectedness continues to increase and transcultural and translingual practices merge, researchers are being prompted to challenge the traditional notion of virtual identity in the face of these evolving realities.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn particular, the field of computer-assisted language learning (CALL) holds great significance in the era of hyperlingualism, characterized by the increased participatory nature of digital communication and the provision of multiple languages in their own bounded spaces and places of use on the web and in other digital contexts. This volume aims to contribute to this rapidly growing body of interdisciplinary research by presenting conceptual papers and research studies that examine identity performance and multilingual communication in highly complexified digitally mediated social platforms.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWhile researchers have recently begun to explore certain aspects of identity and plurilingualism in digital spaces, this volume seeks to provide a comprehensive contextualization of digital multilingual communication as it relates to foreign language learning and teaching. To achieve this, it offers a historical and conceptual overview of the multilingual movement in technologically mediated second language acquisition (SLA), highlighting the key developments and trends that have shaped our understanding of multilingualism in digital contexts.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFurthermore, the volume explores the diverse perspectives and experiences of individuals who navigate multiple languages and identities in digital spaces, shedding light on the challenges, opportunities, and complexities they encounter. It examines the role of language policies, technologies, and social practices in shaping multilingualism in digital environments and investigates how learners develop and express their multilingual identities in these contexts.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBy examining the intersection of identity, plurilingualism, and technology, this volume aims to contribute to a deeper understanding of the ways in which language learning and teaching can be enhanced in the digital age. It provides valuable insights for educators, policymakers, and researchers who are interested in exploring the potential of technology to support and promote multilingualism in diverse learning environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 200g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 234 x 156 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781800500792\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Shulph Ink","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":44096484376826,"sku":"9781800500792","price":24.94,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/1656072134448_book.jpg?v=1656163280","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/identity-multilingualism-and-call-9781800500792","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
