L2 Journal: An Open Access Refereed Journal for World Language Educators

The L2 Journal is an open access, peer reviewed, interdisciplinary journal which aims to promote the research and the practice of world language learning and teaching, particularly languages other than English. L2 Journal publishes articles on all aspects of applied linguistics broadly conceived, i.e., second language acquisition, second language pedagogy, bilingualism and multilingualism, language and technology, curriculum development and teacher training, testing and evaluation.

L2 Journal receives no direct funding, either internally or externally, instead relying on volunteer labor for editorial and production management as well as no-fee publishing services from the University of California’s eScholarship Publishing program. The University of California Libraries, including the California Digital Library, provide funding for the basic operational costs of eScholarship Publishing.
