Education XXI
Addresses the diversification, modernization and improvement of education. It studies the development of educational structures, processes and practices, including the integration and use of digital technologies, oriented towards the promotion of socially relevant learning. Attention is given to two central problems: quality of learning, considering issues related to the acquisition and development of competences and skills; and inclusion, addressing the ongoing engagement with diversity.
Change Forces in Education
Deals with the issues of coordination, steering and monitoring of change in education systems. Attention is given to two central problems: the professional development in education professions, particularly focusing on the socialization and training processes of teachers and other educators; and the processes and effects of participation and accountability in the governance of education systems, particularly focusing on the construction, implementation and assessment of educational public policies.

Summary: This special issue accepts submissions from delegates that participated in the Congress of EDiLiC 2019 only, and addresses challenges and opportunities posed by linguistic and cultural diversity to formal and non-formal educational contexts. Authors who wish to submit to this special issue are invited to consider following overarching themes: intercultural pedagogies and awakening to languages, looking at the intersections between interculturality and plurilingualism and, consequently, considering the connections between plurilingual and intercultural education; language education policies, schools and non-formal education, thus addressing the macro, meso and micro levels of plurilingual and intercultural education as a policy; and educators/teachers’ professional learning and development, focusing on pre- and in-service teachers’ learning and preparation to teach in and for linguistic and cultural diversity, and making a link to teacher education and professional development policies.
