Meeting Description:

14th Annual Conference of the BAAL Language Learning and Teaching Special
Interest Group

12 & 13 July 2018

Hosted by the Centre for Language Learning, Education and Acquisition Research
(CLLEAR), Department of Modern Languages and Linguistics (MLL), University of
Southampton, SOUTHAMPTON, UK

Conference Theme:

''Language teaching and learning in unstable times, and in changing political
landscapes''.

The theme of the LLT SIG conference at Southampton in 2018 will enable
participants to discuss the challenges offered to traditional language
education policy and practice by increasing interconnected globalization and
changing conceptions of identity, accompanied by a rise in global migratory
flows, resurgent nationalism and social inequality. These challenges have both
foreseen and unforeseen consequences for the development and implementation of
language education policy, and for teaching, learning and assessment
practices. We invite papers and posters which make a contribution to
understanding the issues which arise in the pre-school, school, and university
language curriculum, in community-based and online learning and teaching
contexts, and in the evaluation and management processes which shape language
education experiences.

Plenary Speakers:

Fiona Copland – University of Stirling
John Gray – UCL Institute of Education
Tony Liddicoat – University of Warwick

Conference co-chairs:  Richard Kiely and Julia Huettner, Centre for
Linguistics, Language Education and Acquisition Research (CLLEAR), Department
of Modern Languages and Linguistics, University of Southampton.

Conference administrator: Erin Forward 

We are looking forward to welcoming you to Southampton!
