John Benjamins Publishing is pleased to announce that it will begin publishing a new journal in 2016: Study Abroad Research in Second Language Acquisition and International Education.

Reflecting the growth of international exchange programs in an educational context, Study Abroad Research in Second Language Acquisition and International Education will have as its focus the role of study abroad in language learning and educational development. In the area of language learning, articles will explore all facets of second language acquisition during study abroad such as the nature of linguistic development, input engagement and interaction, and the role of contextual, social and socio-biographical factors underpinning the learner’s experience abroad. The journal also will explore issues beyond the linguistic, such as the relationship between study abroad and academic, professional, personal and social development. A complementary area of focus will be educational policy and planning issues in study abroad exchange programs within international education. The journal will publish peer-reviewed articles, thematic issues, invited state-of-the-art articles, and short squibs and research reports.
