The Portuguese Language Journal strives to support the teaching and learning of Portuguese by serving as a forum for the conveying and exchange of information based on research, practices, and experiences relevant to this field.

To teach and learn Portuguese, as a foreign, second, additional, or heritage language - in short, not native – raises, in our days, many challenges (to teachers, students/learners, educators and policymakers, and researchers, just to name some of the actors involved in this process) that are important to know, to study, to rethink and to share. We have many examples of excellent work in our area, from successful programs based on quality frameworks to methodologies, techniques, and resources used to promote the acquisition of communicative competences. The very specificity of our object of study, articulated in the relation Language-Culture, has developed unique processes and tools to assess both the knowledge and competences of those studying a language and also the teachers’ training (graduate, post-graduate, initial, specialized, formal, informal). We are certain that this intense activity has generated the emergence of actions, research, and reflections that will have much to gain if shared. As such, the Portuguese Language Journal invites proposals for articles on the different topics mentioned.
