The theoretical and practical discussions in the publications arise from, and are related to, research into the subject. Practical is defined as having pedagogic value. Theoretical is defined as illuminating and/or generating issues pertinent to the practical. Theory and practice are, however, understood as a continuum. The Series includes books at three distinct points along this continuum: (1) Limited discussions of language learning issues. These publications provide an outlet for coverage of actual classroom activities and exercises. (2) Aspects of both theory and practice combined in broadly equal amounts. This is the core of the series, and books may appear in the form of collections bringing together writers from different fields. (3) More theoretical books examining key research ideas directly relevant to the teaching of modern languages.
