Author Biographies

  • H. Müge Satar, Newcastle University

    H. Müge Satar is a Lecturer in Applied Linguistics and TESOL at Newcastle University, UK. Her primary research interests are in the areas of CALL and teacher education; more specifically CMC, multimodality and social presence. She is an active member of EuroCALL and has publications in international journals including Modern Language Journal, CALICO and ReCALL.

  • Carola Strobl, Ghent University

    Carola Strobl is a post-doctoral researcher at the Department of Translation, Interpreting and Communication of Ghent University, Belgium.
