Meeting Description:

We are proud to be organizing the first GlobELT: An international conference on teaching and learning English as an additional language in Antalya, Turkey on 16-19 April 2015. The conference is organised under the supervision of scholars from Hacettepe University, ELT Department in collaboration with INTESOL Turkey and Informascope.

The GlobELT conference aims to bring together researchers, practitioners, and educators with interests in language teaching and linguistics at all levels from around the world. The GlobELT 2015 conference is designed to attract the research communities to promote connections between theory and practice and explore different perspectives on the application of research findings into different practices.

We have so far been fortunate to secure three important keynote speakers: Rod Ellis, David Newby, and Gülcan Erçetin, who are all prominent scholars in our field. We are also in touch with several other distinguished scholars in the field and hope to host them for the conference. Invited speakers, we believe, will turn the whole event into an inspiring experience. 

The conference will be held at the beautiful Porto Bello Resort & Spa Hotel in Antalya, Turkey. We believe the venue and the timing of the event is as charming as the idea of sharing and disseminating our work. The conference hotel is gorgeous five star luxurious resort operating on an all-inclusive basis for our presenters' joy and comfort. Antalya and the region should also be extremely pleasant and fragrant in this merry month of April. We believe our participants will be able to find plenty to do in their free times.

Call for Papers:

Researchers, Linguists, and ELT scholars from around the world are invited to submit their papers to the GlobELT: An International Conference on Teaching and Learning English as an Additional Language. Proposals for presentations are invited on the following, but not limited to, themes:

- Culture and literature in English education
- Early English education
- English as an international language
- English for academic purposes

Types of Presentations:

Participants are invited to submit abstracts of papers, workshops or posters to the conference program committee. All types of presentations will be in English. Speakers can choose to do an oral presentation, a poster presentation, or an online presentation. All proposals will be blind-reviewed by at least two members of the editorial and advisory board for scope and quality.

We truly hope to provide a far-reaching outlet for our participants' work. For this purpose we have contacted Elsevier's Procedia - Social and Behavioral Sciences for possible inclusion of our conferences proceedings as a Procedia volume. Alternatively, we have two supporting journals. International Online Journal of Education and Teaching (www.iojet.org) and Eurasian Journal of Applied Linguistics (www.ejal.eu) have expressed intention of support in our efforts of disseminating research findings and ideas to be presented in the course of our GlobELT 2015 conference.

We sincerely hope that this conference will create a friendly occasion for all of us to share perspectives and research findings from wide variety of educational contexts. We also dearly value possible friendships and partnerships made and insights gained at the conference and hope they will go beyond your participation in the conference, leading to better understanding and appreciation of our profession from an international stance. We, therefore, are looking forward to welcoming and hosting you at Porto Bello Resort & Spa Hotel, Antalya, Turkey on April 16-19, 2015.
