Meeting Description:

Under the heading 'L2 interactional competences and practices in a second
language' (ICOP-L2), this conference brings together researchers from various
horizons (e.g. linguistics, education, sociology) who investigate how people
engage in second language talk-in-interaction: What are the basic ingredients
of L2 interactional competence? How does such competence vary across
situations and over  time? How do L2 speakers use the linguistic resources at
their disposal to accomplish social actions in coordination with others? How
do linguistic and other resources (gaze, gesture, posture) work together in L2
talk? How does social interaction structure learning processes and learning
products? How can L2 interactional competence and learning through interaction
be addressed in educational contexts?  These are among the questions that will
be tackled during the conference.
 
The conference papers and panels will be organized in three thematic strands:
- L2 talk-in-interaction: This strand is concerned with describing the
practices of L2 talk and with the (multi)semiotic resources speakers mobilize
to accomplish these practices, without necessarily addressing issues of
learning.
- Learning-in-interaction: This strand comprises research on learning
processes, activities and opportunities in social interaction in a variety of
settings, including both the language classroom and learning 'in the wild'.
-  L2 interactional competence: This strand includes studies investigating the
development of interactional competence over time as well as contributions
addressing challenges for the assessment and the teaching of interactional
competence.
