The Journal of African Language Teachers’ Association (JALTA), published annually in collaboration with the National African Language Resource Center (NALRC), is dedicated to topics related to the teaching and learning of African languages in foreign-language contexts. The Journal primarily seeks to address the interests of language teachers, administrators, and researchers. Articles that describe innovative and successful teaching methods that are relevant to the concerns or problems of the profession, or that report educational research or experimentation in African languages are welcome. Papers presented at the annual African Language Teachers’ Association (ALTA) Conference will be considered for publication, but additional manuscripts from members of the profession are also welcome.
