Virtual exchange in the Asia-Pacific

Virtual Exchange (VE) is of great import to language and culture teachers and researchers but is also gaining popularity in other fields. However around the world and in the Asia-Pacific region in particular the number of exchanges is not high and the quality of those that exist needs to continue to improve. It is essential that the latest research and best practice can be disseminated to ensure VE develops further. In this edited volume various researchers and practitioners provide firsthand perspectives well-researched accounts of current situations ideas for future exchanges and areas in need of further development. We hope it will be of use to the VE practitioner and researcher alike.
