Immerse yourself in the future of language learning with Born-Digital Texts in the English Language Classroom. This ground-breaking volume explores the myriad ways in which digitally born texts are revolutionising language learning, offering insights into established approaches and innovative curriculum design. From hashtags to AI, this collection empowers educators to navigate digital transformation and inspire change. * Maria Eisenmann, Julius-Maximilians-Universität Würzburg, Germany * This book provides an important, stimulating and accessible new set of critical reflections and empirical research reports. The chapters, from varying contexts, focus on both theoretical and practical issues arising from the need for fundamental rethinking of educational practices still largely based on print literacy in an age of digital literacies. Highly recommended. * Geoff Hall, University of Nottingham Ningbo China * This wide-ranging examination of born-digital texts from a variety of theoretical, linguistic and pedagogical perspectives is an important introduction both to the plethora of text types in the born-digital landscape – from tweets and hashtags to fanfiction – and to the many ways of using such texts in the classroom. The book's treatment of AI and its educational challenges is particularly timely in the post-truth society in which we find ourselves. * Amos Paran, IOE, UCL’s Faculty of Education and Society, UK *
