In this school year, the North-Rhine Westphalian Ministry of Education has introduced Nigeria as a country of reference into its school curriculum. It is a challenge, though, for teachers and teacher trainees to find their way into the vastness of this new topic area as part of the Abitur. On 4th February, 2020 we will offer a training event which will serve as a practical introduction to the complex field of learning with and about Nigerian literature, film and music in the secondary EFL classroom and will generate a range of fresh perspectives on Nigeria for teachers.

A very warm welcome to the representatives of the Austrian (Silvia Bauer-Marschalinger, Christiane Dalton-Puffer & Helen Heaney), Finnish (Tarja Nikula-Jäntti & Kristiina Skinnari), Italian (Teresa Ting), Spanish (María Luisa Pérez Canado, Diego Rascón Moreno, Trinidad Jerez Montoy, Antonio Vincente Casas Pedrosa) and UK teams (Do Coyle & Kim Bower) as well as Dominik Rumlich (Germany).

It’s a pleasure to have you and to be working with you on this project!

For the first time, the TEFL team cooperates with the team of Romanistikdidaktik of Wuppertal in form of a tandem seminar.

Anika Marxl and Melanie Arriagada engage in the topic of mediation in the digital context together with their seminar groups. Both groups cooperate with the help of various digital tools. Additionally, both lecturers will visit the other group giving a guest talk.

We are very excited to welcome Melanie Arriagada on the 27th of November in Prof. Matz’s "Selected Aspects of SLA/ELT“ lecture.

In a joint event hosted by the TEFL team and the Chair of English, Postcolonial & Media Studies, author Olumde Popoola delivered an engaging creative writer's talk titled "Undo Me! Language, Form, and Queer Potentiality" as part of this year's "Postcolonial Narrations" graduate forum. Popoola engaged with her novel "When We Speak of Nothing" and explored the idea of how form and Yoruba folklore provide means to express alternative understandings of youth culture and transgender identities. With the TEFL team, Popoola was also in talks about further projects that center on teaching Nigerian texts in German high schools.

We welcome contributions regarding conceptual, theoretical and empirical findings including, but not limited to the following sub-themes:

• Supporting individual learners through the help of Open Educational Resources (OER) and assistive technologies (such as Artificial Intelligences)
• The role of augmented and virtual reality for (cultural) learning
• Genre learning in foreign language classrooms with (new) digital genres and formats
• Teaching diverse foreign language learners through game-based language learning
• Digital storytelling and other formats for literary learning
• Opportunities and challenges for assessment in hybrid learning spaces
