Meeting Description: 

(Session of World Congress of Applied Linguistics)

The relation and collaboration between researchers and practitioners has long
been discussed within and across applied sciences and theoretical disciplines
(see AILA Review 2018, 31, for a recent overview). However, research
approaches claiming to combine theoretical and practical needs and
expectations often lack either solid grounding in empirical data or thorough
reflection from theoretical perspectives. This symposium aims to take the
discussion further by rethinking transdisciplinarity systematically from
theoretical and practical angles, inviting contributions both from cooperation
with other disciplines as well as with practitioners.
 
>From theoretical angles, the contributions explain how and why
transdisciplinary research contributes to further developing empirically
grounded theories of language use in context in an increasingly digitized and
glocalized professional world. From practical angles, the contributions
elaborate on potential pitfalls and benefits practitioners can expect from
collaborating with researchers from various disciplines. For example, how
practitioners can engage in – and benefit from – research projects by
co-creating knowledge together with academic researchers. Phases of such
activity include identifying wicked problems, formulating pertinent research
questions, developing shared languages, engaging in ongoing dialogue, finding
results and conclusions based on mutual learning, as well as developing and
implementing tools that foster sustainable solutions.
