CALL FOR PROPOSALS
National Council of Organizations of Less Commonly Taught Languages
Sixth National Conference
Los Angeles, California
May 2-4, 2003
Focus on the Learner in the LCTLs: Profiles and Prospects
The Sixth National Conference of the National Council of Organizations
of Less Commonly Taught Languages (NCOLCTL) is scheduled May 2-4, 2003,
at the University of California, Los Angeles
Proposals are solicited for individual papers, colloquia and poster
sessions. The formats are described below. Proposals should fall
broadly within the Conference theme of "Focus on the Learner in the
LCTLs: Profiles, Motivations and Opportunities." Although proposed
presentations may focus on individual languages, each should address
issues that clearly relate to more than just that one language. The
focus of session topics might include:
Heritage language learners
Bilingual education students
Autonomous and self-instructional setting students
Distance education students;
Proposals on learner needs analysis are especially welcome. Other
topics such as curriculum and materials development, teacher training
and professionalization, and research studies will also be considered.
Individual papers are 20 minutes long. A paper should focus clearly on
one or more issues related to the theme. Papers may be based on research
or practical experience.
Colloquia are 90 minutes. A colloquium proposal should specify three or
more presenters who will address one of the conference themes.
Preference will be given to panels that cut across different languages
or language groups.
Poster and presentation sessions may focus on completed work or work in
progress related to the teaching and/or learning of less commonly taught
languages. They may be of either the traditional poster format, such as
presentation of materials or of results of research in progress, or
demonstrations of instructional or information technology. However, any
proposal requiring technical support must specify in detail the type of
hardware and software needed.
Proposals should indicate the title and kind of presentation (paper,
colloquium or poster session) in the upper left-hand corner, and the
name of the presenter and the presenter's primary language(s) in the
upper right-hand corner. The proposed title should not exceed ten
words. Next should be a 50-75 word abstract suitable for inclusion in
the conference program. The proposal text should be 150-200 words long
and may not exceed one page in length.
If possible, proposals should be submitted in electronic format by email
to Scott McGinnis: smcginnis at nflc.org. If email is not available,
proposals may be sent to the following address by hard copy:
Scott McGinnis
National Foreign Language Center
7100 Baltimore Avenue, Suite 300
College Park, MD 20740
Phone 301-403-1750 x35
Fax 301-403-1754

their submissions. They will be notified by the Program Committee by
January 15, 2003, whether their proposal has been accepted.
