Abstract
The first Educational Phonetics section of JIPA shows a preoccupation with the theory, practice and results of language teaching. Clearly this area of professional interest will continue to occupy the interests of phoneticians as it has done ever since the Association was founded. Windsor Lewis's note addresses the perennial question of which phonological varieties of English should be set up as models for the non-native learner of English, while Jenner's article offers an alternative approach to the description of non-native accents which may suggest a novel basis for the organisation of pronunciation teaching. Contributions have been promised in other areas of professional interest, but did not materialise in time to be incorporated in this issue.
