educators from diverse contexts who strive to connect research findings to
classroom practices, thus shaping the future direction of language education.
TexLER welcomes research studies and practice-oriented presentations that
clearly establish strong connections between theory and practice in diverse
contexts. Our goal is to offer an interdisciplinary forum for all those
interested in research findings with implications for the classroom as well as
those interested in pedagogical approaches to language learning grounded in
empirical findings.

The theme for the conference this year is 
“21st Century Literacies: Critical Approaches for Social Transformation”

of Texas at San Antonio, Downtown Campus.

the field of foreign/second language teaching. TexLER unites scholars and
educators from diverse contexts who strive to connect research findings to
classroom practices, thus shaping the future direction of language education.

Language and Technology 
Language Testing and Assessment
Curriculum Design and Development
Language Planning and Policy
Teacher Education
Bilingual, Multilingual, and Heritage Learner Communities
Educational Linguistics
Research Methodology

Second Language (Bi)Literacy

Interested participants are encouraged to submit a proposal for one of the
following session types:
- 60-minute Poster Presentation: 
Posters will be on display during the conference, and a separate conference
session will be dedicated to presenters to explain their work and answer
questions.  Posters can be used to gain valuable feedback on theses,
dissertations, or research. This is a good format for describing a work in
progress, or a new process or idea.  

- 20-minute Research-Based or Practice-Oriented Presentation
+ Research-Based Presentation: A 20-minute formal talk addressing a small
audience followed by a 5 minute Q&A/discussion. It might be original empirical
research as well as an original theoretical investigation.
+ Practice-Oriented Presentation: A 20 minute practical or “hands-on”
presentation by the presenter(s) followed by a 5 minute Q&A/discussion.  It
can be a practical demonstration of a theory, or an application of pedagogical
methodology still in the developmental stage.

- 45-minute Practice-Oriented Presentation
Workshop: A 45-minute practical demonstration of a theory or an application of
a pedagogical methodology, followed by a short Q&A/discussion. Presenter(s)
should engage the audience through experiential learning techniques.

Online registration, proposal submission form, and more detailed information
are available on our website: www.texler.org
