Meeting Description:

The past year has brought many changes to pedagogical contexts and ways of
teaching in diverse educational settings. The shift to online and remote
learning has spurred on efforts to learn about, and implement, best practices
for teaching from afar. Online and remote language teaching pose special
challenges and opportunities. This conference seeks to address these
challenges with particular attention to bridging theory with practice and
bringing research findings to the classroom. The conference will take place
over two days (5-6 March), and a total of four panels will be held, one
devoted to each of these topics:
 - Issues of equity and inclusion in online language teaching
 - Innovative techniques for teaching languages remotely
 - Teaching culture using online tools
 - Assessment of language skills online

Additionally there will be three keynote speakers.

15 minutes plus time for questions. The deadline for submission is 1 February
2021. Participants will be notified of the outcome of their submission by 8

3. The title of the panel in which you envision presenting (choose from above)
4. Type of talk (research-based, teaching-based, etc.)
5. Title and up to 250 word abstract followed by references cited in the

6. Up to 3 keywords/phrases
