Meeting Description: 

Since each transition allows a person to communicate with greater complexity and
flexibility, we believe that a complete understanding of what our learners go
through will lead to efficient teaching strategies and practice in ELT. 

As Çukurova University, Centre for Foreign Languages, we would like to invite
you to the Conference ''Stepping over Thresholds: Transitions in English
Language Learning and Teaching''. The theme of the conference is intended to
explore major transitions occurring throughout the process of learning to
communicate in a foreign/second language. Focusing on transitions such as moving
from high school to university, prep school to faculties, from classroom
learning to e-learning, from note-taking to academic writing/reading and so
forth, we aim to link emergent theoretical and research approaches to issues in
language education, use of technology in language teaching, language testing,
language policy and planning, and other traditional areas of concern.
