Background

In this 21st century globalized era, societies are facing tremendous challenges in maintaining and building bridges across cultures around the globe. Teaching and research on these issues excite further elaboration, innovation, and collaboration in the geographically borderless contexts.

The inevitably strong wave of the 4th Industrial Revolution obviously has impacted the educational world, leading to the advent of the so-called Education 4.0. To put it simply, Education 4.0 in Hussin’s (2018) terms, is a responseto the needs of IR4.0 where human and technology are aligned to enable new possibilities. Learning is no longer seen and treated as obtaining knowledge and skills, but rather identifying where and how to learn these skills and knowledge. In this view, students learn from each other, whilst teachers act as facilitators. What is more, learning performance can be undertaken through data-based customization. This appears to be the key criterial features of Education 4.0.

With its 14years of experience in the teaching and research on language, literature, and culture, Faculty of Language and Literature Education, Universitas Pendidikan Indonesia (FPBS UPI) hosts this international conference to provide a forum for experts and professionals to share their experiences, ideas, and visions; contribute the latest and exciting innovations in a broad coverage of language, literature, and culture scholarship, teaching implementation and policy, particularly in encountering Industrial Revolution 4.0, including Education 4.0 era.
