Carreres, Ángeles; Noriega-Sánchez, María – Research-publishing.net, 2021
While translation has been used for centuries for the purpose of language learning, there is no doubt that recent approaches in the area of language and translation pedagogy have helped re-conceptualise -- and re-operationalise -- translation in radically new ways.

Moore, Emilee; Llompart, Júlia – Research-publishing.net, 2017
Interactional data is often central to research in plurilingual learning environments.

Although the…

The physical issue they imply, refers to the general size of screens, which at the…
