Abstract	This e-book is a celebration of and reflection on 10 years of the The Centre for Languages, Linguistics and Area Studies (LLAS) elearning symposium, an event which is run by the Centre for Languages, Linguistics and Area Studies based at the University of Southampton, UK. (LLAS) was founded in 2000 as one of 24 Higher Education Academy subject centres. Over time it has built a reputation for providing support to the wider languages, linguistics and area studies communities through its regular conferences, workshops and innovative projects which provide professional development and networking opportunities to teachers in the higher education and school sectors. More recently it has also become a successful enterprise unit within Modern Languages at the University of Southampton, which works in partnership with universities around the world to deliver bespoke professional development courses or develop collaborative projects. This ebook is structured around four sections. Each section begins with an invited contribution and contains articles related to the broad thematic area introduced in the invited piece. This structure deliberately reflects the alternation of keynote plenary sessions and talks which has been the distinct format of the elearning symposium in the past ten years. The book is aimed at practitioners and as such recounts real, practical experiences of innovation in using technology in language teaching or professional practice. The authors' work is based in research, but they all present lived examples of excellent practice in action. The range of projects and case studies presented in this e-volume is a testament to the irrepressible creativity of language teachers in their adoption of technology to achieve their pedagogic aims.
