This book is dedicated to all researchers in applied linguistics and pedagogues of foreign/second languages who persevered through the COVID-19 pandemic while finding alternative means to collect research data, to deliver quality instruction to their students, to maintain the necessary production to meet professional criteria for advancement, and to continue the dissemination of multicultural and multilingual knowledge. It is an honor to affiliate with professionals who strive to maintain integrity, who search for truth and understanding, and who share it with others.
And in memory of Dr. Kimberly Geeslin: mentor, researcher, and friend.
