In DEFINERS we are committed to a meaningful and situated use of technologies in language learning and teaching.

Principal Investigator

Boris Vazquez-Calvo is assistant professor in language education at the University of Malaga. His research lies at the intersection of language learning, fan practices, and digital culture. He studies how young people as fans develop, use and learn literacies, languages, and identities in multiple ways, particularly in online contexts of social interaction. He is also interested in CALL, digital games and their applicability to language education, and new discourse modalities online. He is currently the PI of DEFINERS.
