Meeting Description:

PSLLT is the only annual conference in North America focussed on second
language pronunciation learning and teaching.  It has a strong reputation for
bringing together leading researchers and practitioners and results in a
widely referenced conference proceedings publication.  For 2021, the
conference will be held virtually, which we hope will open it up to many new
participants who have not previously been able to attend a PSLLT conference.


Call for Papers: 

Conference Theme: Open to any topic related to pronunciation learning and
teaching for all second languages and contexts.

PSLLT is open to both presenters and attendees.  Many delegates come for the
professional development opportunity it provides, and not to give a
presentation. 

The 2021 Virtual Pronunciation in Second Language Learning and Teaching
(PSLLT) Conference (June 18-19, 2021) seeks proposals for presentations
related to L2 pronunciation learning and teaching, in all second languages and
contexts.  We hope the online nature of the conference will encourage
participation from both seasoned participants as well as international L2
pronunciation colleagues who might not normally be able to attend a PSLLT
conference in person. If you submitted a proposal for the 2020 PSLLT
Conference and did not withdraw the proposal when the conference was delayed,
we ask that you resubmit it to the 2021 Virtual PSLLT Conference submission
site so we can keep all submissions in a single database.  More information on
the virtual platform to be used during the conference will be provided in the
coming months.

Presentations at the 2021 Virtual PSLLT may be related to second language:
 - segmentals
 - suprasegmentals/prosody
 - intelligibility
 - comprehensibility
 - oral fluency
 - pronunciation teaching methodology/techniques
 - pronunciation learning and technology
 - speech development
 - speech perception and/or production
 - theoretical speech learning models
 - laboratory research
 - speech development
 - social dimensions of accent
 - other relevant topics

The Pronunciation in Second Language Learning and Teaching Conference invites
proposals for three main types of presentations: Oral presentations (20
minutes +5 minutes of questions), posters (a dedicated 90-minute poster
presentation session), and Teaching Tips (7-minute, evidence-based pedagogical
techniques/activities for teaching pronunciation). Individuals may submit a
maximum of one abstract as first author, whether an oral paper, a poster or a
teaching tip. An individual may appear as a co-author/co-presenter of another
presentation, provided they are not first author. Please keep proposal titles
to 15 words and abstracts to a maximum of 250 words.

Abstracts can be submitted via the conference website:
