Meeting Description:

The Excellence in Pedagogy and Innovative Classrooms (EPIC) Program,
an initiative from the UCLA Division of Humanities, is pleased to host
the “Reimagined Critical Pedagogy: Resistance and Solidarity in
Language Classrooms” conference focused on language pedagogy.
Conference sessions will be held both in person and remotely on
Friday, April 28th and remotely on Saturday, April 29th, 2023. Our
keynote speaker will be Professor Henry A. Giroux (McMaster University
Chair for Scholarship in the Public Interest in English and Cultural
Studies, Paulo Freire Distinguished Scholar in Critical Pedagogy).

Call for Papers:

EPIC-Lang(uage) invites you to propose full panel sessions or
individual papers which aim to explore the integration of critical
pedagogy into our Modern Language programs through building EDIA
(equity, diversity, inclusion, and accessible) based Instruction,
Content and Assessments into our language courses. While re-imagined
language classes focus more on teaching academic and critical thinking
skills rather than language specific skills, the current transformed
language learning and teaching landscape compels us to make our
language instruction more meaningful and diverse in their objectives.
We seek proposals that address the needs of future language learners
and educators in Language Humanities which focuses on critical
pedagogy, and proposals that develop innovative curricula  to enable
solidarity and resistance through a language classroom. The language
classroom is re-imagined to become a focal point to empower students
and provide a place for them to explore their related life goals. The
objective of this EPIC-Lang international conference is to provide a
comprehensive academic experience for language educators of all
languages at the University level.

We welcome individual paper or full panel proposals  on any of the
following themes:
– Solidarity, Resistance and Student Empowerment through Language
courses
– Multilingualism, Translanguaging, Intercomprehension,
MultiLiteracies in Language Classes
– Examples of transformed methodology in language courses –
Instruction, Content or Assessments

Individual presentations will be allotted 20 minutes each while panels
will be allotted 50 minutes and may comprise no more than 3 speakers.
Each panel proposal must identify their panel topic and speakers
clearly in the proposal. We welcome submissions from faculty, graduate
students, and independent scholars.

Panel or paper proposal submissions must include the following:
– paper abstract(s)
– presenter name(s)
– session topic (must be one of the three topics listed above)
– institutional affiliation and title or rank (if any)
– email information for all presenters

To be considered for the conference, proposals must be submitted by
Friday, March 31, 2023. Please find additional details and the
submission portal here:
