Antwerp CALL 2010 will be combined with the second edition of the LINGUAPOLIS 
Summer School: A Toolbox for Design-Based Research (22-27 August 2010). The 
course will focus on methodological considerations in designing and conducting 
empirical research. Our lecturers will highlight the practical issues involved 
in the use of qualitative and quantitative research methods in language teaching
and learning. Participants of CALL 2010 get a reduction for the Summer School. 

The maximum number of participants is limited, so enjoy the benefits of pre-
registration for both events by sending an e-mail to ann.aerts at ua.ac.be. Once 
pre-registered, your seat is reserved, but you keep the right to cancel until 
15 March 2010.
