JALT2016JALT2016—Transformation in Language Education: Postconference Publication

It is with pleasure that we present the 2016 JALT Postconference Publication: Transformation in Language Education. The papers published in the PCP have come to represent an impressive range of topics and issues related to language education. We feel that this year’s edition as well provides an index of the breadth and depth of interest shown by the EFL professionals who have presented at the JALT International Conference. As the PCP has become more selective, with roughly two-thirds of papers submitted making it to final publication, what you see here is some of the best work from the conference.

It would not be possible to publish the PCP without the contributions of many individuals, first and foremost the authors themselves, who, besides making presentations at the conference and then writing papers based on them, also submitted to a rigorous process of review and editing in order to prepare their work for publication. We also would like to thank the various groups who assisted with this process. This includes the reviewers who evaluated the submissions, content editors who worked with authors on revisions, and copy editors who proofread manuscripts for final publication. Not only did many of these contributors go above and beyond what was expected of them, many also contributed in more than one area. Their dedication and professionalism has been much appreciated.

Finally, we would like to thank our readers, as the excellent work represented here would be of little consequence without an interested audience to carry on the discussion. We hope that all of you, contributors and readers alike, will return for future conferences and editions of the PCP.
