Full Title: CALR Linguistics Journal 


Linguistic Field(s): Applied Linguistics 

Subject Language(s): English (eng)

Call Deadline: 15-Sep-2019 

The concept of English as a foreign language has been a disputed matter among
linguists for some time now, particularly in the fields of second language
acquisition (SLA) and English language teaching (ELT). In these fields, the
ultimate goal or standard has been the unattainable ideal of a native speaker,
which has further alienated the learner and disappointed the user. TEFL finds
itself at the centre of the paradoxes which arise from the global spread of
English and its international use in the periphery. EFL which has been the
dominant English model in the periphery is giving way to a new orthodoxy which
attempts to be more suited to the realities of global English. At the same
time, the field of ELT has become increasingly multidirectional and
multifaceted in its applications. 

As new theories and research have emerged on language, and even more so, on
English as a foreign language there may be a need to reconsider traditional
TEFL models and propose a reformed alternative, based on the requirements and
perceptions of the international user of English.

CALR invites linguists, researchers and faculty members working in the domain
of English to present working papers, research articles and case studies on
traditions, trends, concerns and controversies in English language teaching,
particularly in relation to EFL. Submissions are specifically welcome case
studies or analysis that target the following themes: 
- What are EFL learners' needs? 
- How can TEFL in the expanding circle attend to the international learner
needs?
- Whether learning a foreign language should enable the learner to internalize
the culture and ideas of the native culture of the language.
- Whether learning a foreign language should enable the learner to communicate
their own ideas and culture.
- Future directions

Submissions can be sent to CALR at aou.edu.lb
Deadline for submissions: 15 September 2019
Selected submissions will be included in CALR Linguistic Journal, vol.10, due
in December 2019. 

CALR Linguistic Journal is an issn referenced and indexed journal in the
European Reference Index for the Humanities (ERIH Plus). ISSN number
2073-1175.
