Reviews

“This volume brings together nine perspectives from colleagues in several English—speaking countries, all of whom explore the question of which new possibilities for teaching character writing in CFL classes the digital age can offer, and delves deeply into different aspects of that matter. … the volume provides a diverse and contemporary overview of the topic, drawing on an impressive corpus of empirical research and recent literature.” (Andreas Guder, CHUN - Chinesisch Unterricht, Issue 40, 2025)
