Description

This chapter explores the reciprocal relationship between language learners’ cultural identities and their telecollaboration experience. On the one hand, learners’ identities and positioning affected the degree of their intercultural competence development in the exchange. On the other hand, telecollaboration offered learners a space to explore and reimagine their cultural identities.
