In September 1999, in association with the WELL project, the CTI Centre for Modern Languages and EUROCALL published a Web-based issue of ReCALL about Web Enhanced Language Learning and Teaching.
All papers were refereed in the normal way by the WELL project members and the ReCALL Editorial Board and Academic Advisory Panel.
The editorial is by William Haworth, representing the WELL project.
This special WELL issue of ReCALL offers contributions about the following topics:
- Second language acquisition through email interaction (Farid Aitsiselmi)
- Juggling hot potatoes: decisions and compromises in creating authoring tools for the Web (Stewart Arneil and Martin Holmes)
- Creating a virtual language lab: an EFL experience at National Taiwan Ocean University (Hao-Jan Howard Chen)

- Proposal for an online language course (Susan Curtis, Joanne Duchastel and Nebojsa Radic)
- Adding a new perspective to distance (language) learning and teaching - the tutor's perspective (Mirjam Hauck and Bernard Haezewindt)
