About the Journal

Didaktik Slawischer Sprachen (Didactics of Slavic Languages) (DiSlaw) is an Open Access journal that is published twice a year and follows a strict Double Blind Peer Review process. DiSlaw is indexed by the DOAJ (Directory of Open Access Journals), im Fachportal Pädagogik (Erziehungswissenschaft, Bildungsforschung und Fachdidaktik) and Ulrichsweb. 

DiSlaw meets the urgent need for a subject-specific journal on the teaching and learning of Slavic foreign and heritage languages in German-speaking reagions.  It combines theoretical foundations with practical approaches to the challenges of guided language acquisition.

We– the editorial team – do not see subject didactics as a mere collection of best practice examples but rather as a research-driven, theory-based, and practice-oriented discipline. Therefore, DiSlaw provides a publication platform for various types of contributions that engage with the teaching and learning of Slavic languages. In addition to scientific-theoretical articles and theory-guided studies from teaching practice, DiSlaw also publishes practical teaching examples and book reviews (e.g., of textbooks).

DiSlaw presents itself as a multilingual journal, publishing articles in German and English as well as in Bosnian, Croatian, Russian, Serbian, Slovenian, and Ukrainian. The journal is also open to contributions in other Slavic languages.
