language educators, but the talks can be enjoyed by the general public
interested in languages.

This year’s ConnecTalks features two internationally recognized speakers: *Dr.
Marta Gonzalez-Lloret (University of Hawai‘i at Mānoa)*, whose talk will
focus on why Pragmatics should be an essential component of language
learning, and *Dr. Steven Thorne (Portland State University & **University
of Groningen)*, whose talk will focus on how language educators can better
cultivate multilingual and interculturally aware societies.
