In your opinion, which topics in history, art, and culture still need more research or even the most research?
In my opinion, topics related to marginalized groups and their contributions in history, art, and culture still need more research. This includes exploring the experiences and perspectives of women, people of color, LGBTQ+ individuals, and other underrepresented communities. By shedding light on these often overlooked narratives, we can gain a more comprehensive understanding of our shared history and cultural heritage. Additionally, research on the impact of globalization and technology on art and culture is also an area that could benefit from further exploration to better understand how these forces shape our world today.

Which research focus would be suitable for a research paper in history about Amon Goeth?
A suitable research focus for a paper on Amon Goeth in history could be an analysis of his role as the commandant of the Plaszow concentration camp during World War II. This could involve examining his actions, decisions, and impact on the prisoners under his command. Additionally, exploring the motivations behind his brutal treatment of inmates and his involvement in the Holocaust could provide valuable insights into the broader historical context of Nazi atrocities. Finally, investigating the post-war trials and legacy of Amon Goeth could shed light on the complexities of justice and accountability in the aftermath of such heinous crimes.

Language Debates : Theory and Reality in Language Learning, Teaching and Research
This book captures an urgent moment for language teaching, learning and research.At its core are a series of debates concerning gender stereotyping, the place of linguistics in modern languages, language activism, multilingualism and modern languages and digital humanities.Taken together, these debates explore the work that languages, and that those who learn and speak them, do in the world as well as the way we think 'through' and 'in' a language and are shaped by it.Language Debates acknowledges the history of language teaching and the current realities of language teaching and learning.It is bold in suggesting ways forward for reform and for policy, setting languages and language learning at the heart of a consciously transformative set of goals.This book is therefore essential reading for academics, language teachers, policy makers, students, activists and those passionate about progressing language learning and teaching.The editors and contributors make up a multilingual and multicultural team who work across languages, cultures and borders with a globally-informed approach to their work.Uniquely, the debates in this volume are based on events with participants in the Language Acts and Worldmaking Debates Series and/or workshops within the wider research project and take into account the ensuing discussions there.Each debate is accompanied by an interview which serves as a model on how to continue the conversation beyond the printed pages of the book.You can also discover ways to join the debate through links on the Language Acts and Worldmaking series website (www.jmlanguages.com/languageacts) which includes recorded debates, additional materials and more information about the series.Like all the volumes in the Language Acts and Worldmaking series, the overall aim is two-fold: to challenge widely-held views about language learning as a neutral instrument of globalisation and to innovate and transform language research, teaching and learning, together with Modern Languages as an academic discipline, by foregrounding its unique form of cognition and critical engagement.Specific aims are to:· propose new ways of bridging the gaps between those who teach and research languages and those who learn and use them in everyday contexts from the professional to the personal· put research into the hands of wider audiences · share a philosophy, policy and practice of language teaching and learning which turns research into action· provide the research, experience and data to enable informed debates on current issues and attitudes in language learning, teaching and research· share knowledge across and within all levels and experiences of language learning and teaching· showcase exciting new work that derives from different types of community activity and is of practical relevance to its audiences · disseminate new research in languages that engages with diverse communities of language practitioners.

Teachers' Research in Language Education : Voices from the Field
Over the past decade, interest in language teacher education and professionalization programs has increased significantly mainly due to global educational reforms, which have been driven by internationalization, multilingualism, the rise of new literacy and the incorporation of technologies. These reforms, based on the challenges of knowledge societies and networks, have created the need to re-evaluate and reconceptualize teacher training and teacher professional development as a "fundamental connection to teaching" (Bryant et al., 2008; Velaz de Medrano & Vaillant, 2009; Espinosa, 2012; Johnson and Golombeck, 2018). The main objective is, then, to "prepare the new generations within an increasingly uncertain and demanding global scenario" (Perez Ruiz, 2014, p 114). This publication addresses work on the education of language teachers in a variety of sociocultural, educational and institutional contexts carried out in Mexico and Latin America with various methodological designs and approaches from different theoretical perspectives. Therefore, in the context of current challenges, we seek to promote the exchange, discussions of experience and results of research and reflection that can influence the direction and implementation of language policies regarding teacher education and teacher professionalization for language teaching.

How could one structure a research paper about Japanese culture?
A research paper about Japanese culture could be structured in several ways. One approach could be to start with an introduction that provides an overview of Japanese culture and its significance. The paper could then be organized into sections that cover different aspects of Japanese culture, such as history, language, religion, art, literature, and traditional customs. Each section could include a discussion of key themes, historical developments, and contemporary influences. The paper could also include a conclusion that summarizes the main findings and their implications for understanding Japanese culture. Additionally, incorporating primary sources, interviews, and fieldwork could provide a more in-depth and authentic perspective on Japanese culture.

In your opinion, which topics in history, art, and culture still need more or even the most research?
In my opinion, there are several topics in history, art, and culture that still need more research. One such topic is the history and contributions of marginalized groups, such as women, people of color, and indigenous communities. Their stories and experiences have often been overlooked or marginalized in traditional historical narratives, and there is a need for more research to uncover and amplify their voices. Additionally, the impact of colonialism and imperialism on art and culture around the world is another area that requires further exploration. Understanding how these forces have shaped and influenced artistic and cultural expressions in different regions is crucial for a more comprehensive understanding of global history and heritage. Furthermore, the intersection of technology and art, as well as the evolution of digital and virtual art forms, is a relatively new area that could benefit from more research. As technology continues to advance, it is important to study how it is shaping artistic practices and cultural expressions in the contemporary world.
