Advancing Language Studies in the 21st Century
Societal values, geopolitics, technological advancements, and population shifts have affected language teaching methods and approaches within universities. Although the 21st-century job market calls for proficiency in multiple languages, enrollments in language courses have steadily declined in higher education institutions. This timely collection of essays addresses the multiple perspectives arising from current issues such as declining language enrollments, suitable pedagogical approaches to meet the job market demands, and lessons learned from the recent global COVID-19 pandemic.
