Meeting Description:

JALTCALL is a Special Interest Groups (SIG) of JALT (Japan Association for
Language Teaching) for educators and researchers who share an interest in
digital technology and language learning. We hold a major conference every
year in early/mid June plus workshops at various times.

JALTCALL 2022 will be held in a hydrid format based in Kyoto, Japan. We invite
you to join us in Kyoto or online. This year’s theme is ‘Playful CALL –
Exploring the Intersection of Games and Technology in Language Education.’ 

Taking inspiration from Zimmerman’s manifesto which proposed the 21st century
is the “ludic century,” the focus of the 2022 conference is “Playful CALL”
which we interpret as the exploration of play, games, and other ludic
approaches to CALL research and practice.


2nd Call for Papers:

The call for papers is open until February 13, 2022 (deadline extended).

While proposals will be accepted from a broad range of disciplinary areas and
perspectives related to CALL research, the selection will prioritize the
intersection of research, pedagogy, and praxis in relation to the conference
theme.

Submissions may consider (but are not restricted to) the following subthemes:

▸ Access, equality, diversity and inclusion
▸ Assessment
▸ Materials design
▸ Language policy
▸ Pedagogical innovation
▸ Playful approaches to research, teaching, teacher training and materials
development
▸ Professional development
▸ Youth culture

Additional, gaming-specific topics for consideration:

▸ Designing educational games vs utilizing commercial games
▸ Diversity and representation
▸ Extramural play
▸ Games and pedagogy
▸ Gamification
▸ Gaming critically and critically gaming
▸ Gaming culture and L2 teaching (Streaming, machinima, fanfiction, modding,
remixing, social media)
▸ Playing to learn vs learning to play
