Dear all,

The twelfth annual Texas Foreign Language Education Conference  
(TexFLEC) invites proposal submissions from researchers, teachers, and  
students for our upcoming 2011 conference, April 15-16, at the  
University of Texas at Austin.

The theme for this year's conference is "Language Education Across the  
Academic
Pipeline." Teachers, students, and researchers are encouraged to  
submit proposals for presentations of papers and/or research-based  
teaching practices in the following areas:

   - Articulation across levels of K-16 language education
   - Analysis of policy concerning language minority students, language
      planning, and language politics
   - Assessment and evaluation of language learners
   - Innovative material development for language education
   - Language maintenance and additive multilingualism
   - Learner and teacher identity in language education
   - Educational technology that facilitates language learning opportunities


All proposals must be received by January 31, 2011. Preference will be  
given to
scholarly, creative, and innovative presentations.

Session Types:

   - Research-based Paper Presentations will include a 20 minute
     discussion on new research by the presenter followed by a 10 minute Q&A
     interaction with conference participants.

   - Practice-oriented Presentations will include a 30 minute discussion,
     or group-led modeling exercise of a teaching practice that  
applies current
     research to the classroom.

   - Poster Presentations will be displayed during the lunch breaks and
     can be used to gain valuable feedback on theses, dissertations, or
     research. More information on poster presentations can be found at:
