In today's globalized world, telecollaboration offers a valuable tool to foster language learners' intercultural communicative competence, which is strongly related to pragmatic competence. Therefore, both pragmatic and intercultural skills need to be fostered in the foreign language classroom. As telecollaboration projects can be carried out in many ways, further study on the latest original research is required.

Covering key topics such as augmented reality, second language learning, and foreign language learning, this premier reference source is ideal for policymakers, administrators, scholars, researchers, academicians, instructors, and students.
