Meeting Description:

The idea of this workshop was the result of an observation: drawing is central
to children's learning and the written trace at the end of a language class
often takes the shape of drawing in primary schools. However, the use of
drawing seems to be rare beyond secondary school, but not non-existent, as the
organisers of the day noted: people also draw at university! Drawing as a
language learning tool is nevertheless the subject of little work and lacks
visibility. 

The main aim of this study day is to explore the contribution of drawings,
doodles, diagrams, etc. to English language learning, from pre-school to
university and in teacher training. 
In the context of English language teacher training, Rémon (2020) asks
students, to draw a diagram of learning processes in order to make them aware
of the role of the body in the practice of a foreign language.

It is in the line of this work that we wish to continue exploring these
practices of drawing, subjective mapping and sketching in the specific context
of the teaching/learning of English.
We wish to give learners or teachers’ graphic creations their rightful place
in a context of English language learning, whether these are used as data for
/ in research, or at the heart of a teacher’s lesson.


Call for Papers: 

Submissions: 
Papers should preferably be in English as some of the workshop participants
will be non-French speakers. Should some speakers prefer to communicate in
French, they will be assisted in producing an abstract and slideshow in
English.
The audience will be invited to take notes in the form of drawings or sketches
and share them with all the participants. The day will begin with a sketching
workshop (a method of note-taking by drawing and spacializing information).

Two types of contributions are possible:
 - 20-minute research-format papers followed by 10 minutes of discussion,
 - 10-minutes experience-sharing talks followed by 5 minutes of discussion.
The last slide will present some questions to open the discussion.

Interventions may address the following points:
 - Drawing/scribbling/mapping for teaching/training/explaining
 - Drawing/scribbling/mapping to assess
 - Drawing/scribbling/mapping to memorise
 - Drawing/scribbling/mapping for meaning-making
 - Draw/scribbling/mapping for interaction
 - Drawing/scribbling/mapping... why not?
 - Drawing /writing: pros and cons
 - Drawing/writing: opposition or convergence?
 - What if the written trace after a lesson wasn't in the written form?

Preference will be given to presentations which focus on specific aspects of
English language learning (grammatical, phonological, civilizational,
geographical or communicative activities) and that give an account of
classroom experiences (from kindergarten to higher education).  The
presentations will state the theoretical framework, the research objectives
and the results. Any attempt to qualify or measure the contributions of
drawing (in any form) in an empirical manner will be welcomed (data
highlighting involvement, motivation or actual learning).
Speakers are invited to bring in learners' productions for display. Speakers
will also be required to send the text of their paper by Sept. 15, 2021 to
enable our sketchers to prepare their drawings.
