Meeting Description: 

The main aim of the CELC symposium is to bridge theory and practice.  It is a gathering of ELT practitioners and scholars worldwide to share innovative and state-of-the-art language teaching and learning ideas.

The theme, Alternative Pedagogies in the English Language & Communication Classroom, focuses on a pedagogic inquiry into ways of teaching that respond to recent globalizing and cultural forces as well as technologies impacting instruction and learning. Beyond the 'best practices' approach, such inquiry urges participants and presenters to explore the interplay of theories and practices, particularly that which generates the production of knowledge informing classroom processes and practices. This line of inquiry also urges everyone to forge professional and institutional ties intended to promote a dialogue of and reflections on radical and innovative approaches to language and communication instruction.

such can receive donations through the EMU Foundation, which is a registered 
501(c) Non Profit organization. Our Federal Tax number is 38-6005986. These 
donations can be offset against your federal and sometimes your state tax
return (U.S. tax payers only). For more information visit the IRS Web-Site,
or contact your financial advisor.

Many companies also offer a gift matching program, such that they will match 
any gift you make to a non-profit organization. Normally this entails your 
contacting your human resources department and sending us a form that the 
EMU Foundation fills in and returns to your employer. This is generally a
simple administrative procedure that doubles the value of your gift to
LINGUIST, without costing you an extra penny. Please take a moment to check if
your company operates such a program.
