Meeting Description: 

The International Conference for Learner Corpus Research (LCR 2022) will be
held at the University of Padua (Italy), at the Department of Linguistic and
Literary Studies (www.disll.unipd.it) on 22-24 September, 2022.
It will be the sixth in the series of successful conferences, which took place
in Louvain-la-Neuve (Belgium) in 2011, Bergen (Norway) in 2013, Nijmegen (the
Netherlands) in 2015, Bolzano/Bozen (Italy) in 2017, and Warsaw (Poland) in
2019. The conference is organised under the aegis of the Learner Corpus
Association. 
Its aim is to bring together researchers, language teachers and software
developers with a common interest in the use of learner corpora for research
on second language acquisition, as well as for the enhancement of language
pedagogy and language assessment. The LCR2022 Conference aims to showcase the
latest developments in the field of learner corpus research regarding the
description of learner language and the design of innovative methods and tools
to analyse it.

The conference will feature keynote lectures, full paper presentations, work
in progress reports, poster presentations, software demonstrations and a book
exhibition. Pre-conference workshops are also planned. 
The language of the conference is English.
