Meeting Description:

Transmodalities: Contesting Borders in Language Studies, the 12th annual SLA
Student symposium will be held on April 19 and 20, 2019 at Union South on the
UW-Madison campus. We seek to advance calls for new and future studies that
cut across departmental lines and disciplinary boundaries as well as stimulate
interactions and cooperation among them. This symposium will be of interest to
a wide spectrum students interested in language learning, research, and
education, and the social, psychological, and linguistic factors implicated.
This free, student-run symposium is hosted in conjunction with our
counterparts at the University of Iowa and the University of Minnesota.


Call for Papers:

We are pleased to announce that proposal submissions are now open for the 2019
SLA Symposium. The SLA Symposium will be held on April 19th and 20th, 2019 at
Union South on the University of Wisconsin-Madison campus. The deadline for
proposal submission is January 27, 2019. The graduate students in second
language acquisition (SLA) at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, the
University of Iowa, and the University of Minnesota have formed a partnership
to host this annual symposium, with organization and hosting of the symposium
rotating among the universities. Our purpose is to provide an opportunity for
students in SLA and related disciplines to present their work and interact
with distinguished researchers in their field.

Studies in the field of second language acquisition and applied linguistics
are concerned with the complexities of the multilingual, multimodal, and
multisensory nature of language. The theme of this year's conference is meant
to draw attention to the ways that meaning is constructed across modalities to
inform language learning, teaching, and research in globalized and
increasingly digitalized contexts. The perspective of transmodalities is
inspired by theoretical and empirical work in areas such as multilingualism,
multimodalities, multiliteracies, linguistic anthropology, interactional
sociolinguistics, conversation analysis, and others. Based on the theme
Transmodalities: Contesting Borders in Language Studies, the 2019 SLA Student
Symposium seeks to advance multilingual and multimodal research.

We seek proposals from students whose research both reflects the
interdisciplinary nature of the field of SLA and the increasing focus on
multilingual contexts and learners. We invite proposals from a variety of
areas, including but not limited to the following:

- analysis of discourse and interaction
- bi/multilingual education
- classroom research
- computer-assisted language learning 
- critical analysis
- generative SLA
- heritage languages
- identities in language learning
- instructional technology
- language and culture
- learner corpora and SLA
- multimodal analysis
- psycholinguistic approaches to SLA
- raciolinguistics
- second and foreign language pedagogy
- socialization
- sociocultural approaches to SLA
- sociolinguistics
- testing and assessment
- world Englishes
