Meeting Description:

In this age of internationalization and globalization it is important to use
all means and media to bring quality research and innovative practices not
only to big urban centers, such as Tokyo, Berlin, Peking or New York, but also
to smaller cities, such as Matsuyama in the southwest of Japan, with their,
despite the ubiquitous internet, still limited opportunities. Thus,as its
goal, this conference, taking increased FL learning before the up-coming
Olympics in Tokyo as a global event into consideration, aims at presenting
up-to-date international quality research and learning and teaching methods
and practices to the local and regional foreign language researchers and
teachers. It is also meant to be a place where local researchers and teachers
can present their work, approaches and results to a world-wide audience, in
presence or over the internet. 

This exchange is crucial in the field of foreign language learning and
teaching, as many components of it are simultaneously in a constant flux and
keeping up-to-date is crucial: The learners and teachers, the target
language(s), the practices employed to implement these, and the research, the
methods and their results as they have to be applied. In order to keep the
information available as open as possible, the conference invites all FL
learning and teaching related presentations, but every year a topic is
proposed. Topics in the recent years included ''Into the Next Decade with
(2nd) FL Teaching'' (2009) ''The initial phase'' (2010) ''Foreign Language
Learning and Teaching Places: Schools, Universities and Others'' (2011) and
(2015) “Into the next decade:The next 10 years of FL teaching research
originating from and coming to Matsuyama/West Japan” as well as “Preparing for
the Olympics? Let’s learn Foreign Languages!” (2016), „From active learning to
optimizing in new FL teaching and learning”(2017) and “Learning FLs: Is the
longer really the better?”(2018). This year's theme is “Learning FLs before
the Tokyo Olympics”. Ehime University, where the organizer teaches, makes the
presentations and/or their write-ups available to the public on the organizers
homepage. The presentations from recent years can be consulted by pasting the
