Members' publications

Details of publications to date are here: https://www.hollt.net/publications.html
HoLLT.net will continue to bring together and network researchers worldwide in a continuously consolidating field. A major focus in the coming years will be to further develop collective publication opportunities, for example in the form of edited thematic volumes. A long-term goal is the establishment of a journal for the history of (foreign) language learning and teaching.
Ongoing research and opportunities for collaboration
Members of the HoLLT network are engaging in various projects, including an overall initiative to explore the role of women in the history of language learning and teaching and an incipient international project to investigate the history of the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages through oral history accounts.
Those interested in becoming involved or in publicizing further projects, opportunities or events should contact either one of the convenors in the first instance.
