Taking the time to define epistemology as it relates to EAL teaching and learning, this editorial outlines how the articles in the current issue of the journal support that space. There are five articles in this issue spanning post-secondary and adult contexts. With topics related to testing, teaching methods, lesson planning, comparative education, and literacy education, the value of the journal as a venue for the dissemination of new knowledge is much in evidence.</p>}, number={1}, journal={BC TEAL Journal}, author={Douglas, Scott Roy}, year={2022}, month={Dec.}, pages={i-iii} }
