Anyone teaching foreign languages is aware of the importance of suitable, learner-oriented, and varied teaching and learning methods. In recent years, a great diversity of methodological approaches has developed, both within individual languages and across languages. It is therefore essential to know all methods and methodological actions in detail, as well as their respective place or effects in the language learning process. The new handbook "Methods in Foreign Language Teaching" provides a systematic and scientifically grounded overview of forms and ways of learning, working, and communicative action, as well as cognitive and playful engagement with texts, materials, and media, and the design of stimulating learning environments. It is designed to be applicable across languages for use in all school subjects and also takes into account recent developments, such as in the area of multilingual learning, inquiry-based learning, or digital learning. The handbook vividly presents the diversity of methodological approaches and thus contributes to the development of methodological variety in foreign language teaching and the expansion of teachers' methodological repertoire. As a helpful reference work, it is aimed at teacher education students, foreign language teachers, and all those involved in their training and professional development at universities, training seminars, and schools.
