Meeting Description:

The English Language Center of the College of Liberal Arts, Shantou
University, is pleased to announce that it is accepting proposals for the 10th
edition of its Biennial ELT International Conference to be held in Shantou,
Guangdong, China from the 24th to the 26th of April 2020.

The theme for the Conference is Converging & Diverging Paths: ELT in a
Changing Environment. Economic growth and globalization result in higher
demands for ELT at all levels of education. English becomes increasingly
important not only as a fundamental tool for global interconnectedness but
also for the overall formation of students. ELT teachers and researchers rise
to the challenge by implementing innovative policies and curriculums,
developing fresh approaches to assessment, modernizing teacher training,
incorporating the latest technological developments and more. Meanwhile,
research in pedagogy, linguistics, psychology and neurology yields a plethora
of new conceptions that promote a reassessment of previously fixed principles
and dogmas, thus provoking productive conflicts of ideas. The conference aims
to offer a high-level academic forum for debate on these diverging conceptions
and a proper place to find their points of convergence.


Call for Papers:

We welcome original research papers, classroom (best practice) papers,
workshops and poster presentations addressing issues that are relevant to, but
are not limited to the following strands:

- ELT policies and curriculum design     
- Content and language integrated learning
- ELT and global competence
- Technology-enhanced ELT            
- ELT methods and pedagogy           
- Learner needs and autonomy
- Language testing and assessment
- ELT and critical literacies              
- ELT teacher education and cognition
- ELT and translation
