This proceedings unites a selection of papers presented during the joint meeting of two working groups WG3 & WG5 of the COST Action European Network for Combining Language Learning with Crowdsourcing Techniques (enetCollect). It aims at shedding light on how language learning can be fostered by implementing various crowdsourcing techniques and approaches. The WG 3 is in charge of user-oriented design strategies for a competitive solution, and the WG 5 focuses on theoretical framework making this solution ethical, legal and profitable. The meeting took place at Gravensteen, University of Leiden, Netherlands on 24th and 25th October 2018.
During the meeting, thirty plenary talks were held: a welcome talk, an introduction by the leaders and vice-leaders of the two respective WGs, six invited talks, thirteen full papers, nine posters, and a wrap-up and closing talk underlying the necessity of academics, researchers and entrepreneurs to join forces and collaborate on optimal solutions aiming for fostering language learning of all citizens and all languages. The full papers and posters were carefully selected by the Steering Committee members on a basis of proposed extended abstracts.
The authors of the presentations were invited to submit their paper for these proceedings. By 10th February 2019, nineteen papers were proposed. They went through an exhaustive review process. By 15th April 2019, each paper had received at least three independent blind reviews. The reviewers accepted ten full and three short papers, which were finalized in the beginning of May 2019. They are divided into four thematic groups: Language Learning, Crowdsourcing, Ethical Issues, and Online Communities and Communication.
We cordially thank the committee members for a very well organised meeting, the invited speakers for accepting invitations and delivering very fruitful talks, and finally the authors, who produced very worthy papers.
