Proposals can be submitted online from November 1, 2004 and will be
accepted until January 31, 2005.

The theme of the JALTCALL 2005 Conference is "Glocalization through CALL:
Bringing people together", and focuses on the social dimension of CALL at
local and global levels, as represented by the term glocalization. The
conference organising committee is specifically seeking submissions in the
following areas:


- Using CALL to encourage communication between learners at the local
level
- Using CALL to encourage communication between learners globally
- Collaborative CALL research projects
- Collaborative CALL learning projects
- Local-scale CALL projects with international objectives


Submissions that do not deal directly with the conference theme are also
most welcome, provided they demonstrate a sufficient level of innovation,
quality of research, or suggestions for improvement of the field. CALL
researchers from all continents and from all CALL-related disciplines are
invited to submit applications.

Post-Conference Publication:

The JALT CALL SIG is considering the possibility of two post-conference
publications. The first of these is a conference proceedings, and the
second is an edited volume based on the theme of the JALTCALL 2005
Conference. Please note that the decision whether to go ahead with one or
both of these publications depends on availability of funding and on the
quality of proposals received for the publications.
