<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.5pt;font-family:"Times New Roman",serif">The 4th international conference Thinking, doing, learning: Usage based perspectives on second language learning will be held in the University of Jyväskylä, Finland, on
June 17-19, 2019.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.5pt;font-family:"Times New Roman",serif">The aim of TDL is to advance our understanding of what it means to take a usage-based approach to L2 learning and L2 research. We invite researchers to explore a wide variety
of topics related to language usage, language learning, and cognition. These include questions such as what it means to interact in L2 in different social contexts, how speakers accomplish social actions in moment-to-moment sense-making activities, and what
is the nature of language use environments as well as sediments of usage events left as “acquired linguistic constructions” in the individual language learner. This variety of questions involves strong, empirical and theoretical considerations of language,
learning, and cognition: <o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.5pt;font-family:"Times New Roman",serif"> what is language – constructions or interactional competence?<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.5pt;font-family:"Times New Roman",serif"> what is learning – social action or long-term portability?<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.5pt;font-family:"Times New Roman",serif"> what is cognition – an individual property or a socially distributed phenomenon?, and<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.5pt;font-family:"Times New Roman",serif"> what are the implications for L2 teaching?<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.5pt;font-family:"Times New Roman",serif">We therefore invite conference contributions that draw on epistemologies, theories, and methods from across the spectrum of usage-based language learning research, including
data-driven and theory driven empirical investigations of the relation between cognition, context, interaction, and language learning. We are particularly, but not exclusively, interested in research that tackles (aspects of) the above-mentioned questions
about the nature of language, learning, and cognition.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
