This feature describes an ongoing research and development project (2019-2022) on remote mother tongue teaching in Sweden. The project is based on the collaboration between the Department of Education, Umeå University, and the Competence Centre for Multilingualism. The feature elaborates on challenges and needs for research and practice emerging from the first phase of the project including (1) Strategies for systematically increasing pupils' digital competence, (2) Remote didactics for interactive and collaborative learning, (3) Forms and methods for more active teaching, especially for younger ages, and (4) Digital relational competence for pupils, teachers and supervisors.
