摘要：This editorial reinforces the BC TEAL Journal’s commitment to open access, opportunities for continuing professional development, and knowledge creation related to English as an additional language teaching and learning in British Columbia. In particular, it outlines how peer reviewers benefit from taking part in the intellectual life of their scholarly and professional community through access to new ideas, practical skill development, and reducing the separation between theorists, researchers, and practitioners. The editorial continues with a description of the six articles and one book review in the 2018 issue, and it ends with a friendly invitation to everyone interested in English as an additional language teaching and learning in British Columbia to become more involved in the journal.
