Meeting Description: 

The III International Conference on Applied Linguistics to Language Teaching:
Towards Plurilingualism, is an opportunity for researchers and teachers, both
experts and novices, to share the results of their studies and didactic
experiences.

Developing a multilingual competence of citizens is a lifelong learning task,
integrating the efforts of the educational system, the scientific community,
the experts in language learning and its teaching, the certifying
institutions, as well as the personal motivation and effort of each
individual. The interdisciplinary nature of applied linguistics can address
the multiple challenges of multilingualism.

The languages present in the Conference are English, French, German and
Spanish, with a panel specific for each of them, composed of the following
sections: oral presentations, workshops, posters and junior research projects.

In this third edition of the International Conference we have as a novelty our
invitation to researchers and teachers of other languages, due to the interest
they may have in the development of plurilingual competencies. Therefore, we
are glad to receive Euskera and Portuguese as guest languages.

Representatives of the six linguistic communities, will discuss in two round
tables about the challenges of the multilingual society and about different
aspects of the assessment of communicative language competence in foreign
languages.

The programme is rounded off with a series of master lectures given by
international leading experts in the most recent aspects of the Conference's
topics.

Those papers selected by a group of anonymous experts for their remarkable
interest and scientific rigour will be published in a collective book of
scientific nature.
