Cross-linguistic interaction is a prominent issue in third language (L3) acquisition. The belief that typological similarities are the driving force behind transfer source languages has been rebutted repeatedly. For example, notwithstanding the fact that Dutch–German grammatical parallels are much stronger …

Digital game-based learning (DGBL) is a pedagogical approach employed in educational contexts, wherein digital games are utilised to effectively attain specific learning outcomes. For teacher professional programmes to develop appropriate curricula on DGBL pedagogy, it is important to understand how …

In content and language integrated learning (CLIL), the goal is to support learning of both subject content and (subject-related) language, through an integrated approach. Based on the principle of constructive alignment (Biggs, 1996), it is logical to assume that such integration carries through to …

Peer assisted study sessions (PASS), also known as Supplemental instruction, are structured peer guided sessions linked to a specific course, led by experienced and trained students called PASS-leaders.
