Dr Elina Vilar Beltrán is a language instructor at Queen Mary, University of London. Modern languages education and accessibility have been her main areas of study since she started her post-doctoral training at King's College London. Other areas of interest are digital literacies, intercultural communication and language development in the study abroad context.

Dr Chris Abbott is Reader in e-Inclusion at King's College London. He specialises in teaching and research around literacy, language and assistive technologies, especially with regard to students identified as having learning difficulties. He has led a number of research projects on aspects of technology and disability, and is the author of ICT: Changing Education (2000) and SEN and the Internet: Issues for the Inclusive Classroom (2002).

Dr Jane Jones is Senior Lecturer in MFL Teacher Education at King's College London. Her research interests include the development and embedding of effective formative assessment practices in language teaching and learning, especially with student teachers, and the promotion of self-regulatory strategies by pupils of all abilities and all ages to manage their own learning.

In an age of increasing specialisation a publication that brings together such diverse fields as language learning, inclusive education and digital technology is to be warmly welcomed. The impressive array of practitioners and experts show how these disparate fields can illumine each other and, in so doing, create new opportunities for language learning. Accounts of policy and practice are seamlessly interwoven and will, I am sure, be a source of inspiration and ideas for any teacher seeking to make language learning more accessible to all.
