> The International Society for Language Studies (ISLS) encourages and
> promotes critical discourse and research in language matters, broadly
> conceived.  Papers may be submitted for the following session strands:
>
> -       Discourse and Identity
> -       Education
> -       Interdisciplinary Foci
> -       Language Professions
> -       Pedagogy
> -       Policy
> -       Research Methodology
> -       Technology
>
> Presentation proposals are accepted via the ISLS website. Various
> presentation formats are possible: individual paper, paper session,
> seminar.
> We particularly encourage multiple paper proposals as a  venue for
> scholars
> engaged in research and dialogue on special interest topics.
>
> As an international organization with members from every continent,
> ISLS
> encourages a multilingual event. Although the principal language of the
> conference will be English, authors may submit proposals and present
> papers
> in the language of their choice. In an effort to appeal to the broadest
> of
> audiences and to ensure both audience attendance and participation in
> conference sessions, authors are strongly encouraged to prepare support
> materials (hand-outs, overhead transparencies, slides, concurrent
> bilingual
> translation) in a language likely to be common to attendees. Sessions
> will
> be organized by topic, not language, unless a group of authors propose
> an
> entire session.
>
> Deadline for proposals: October 1, 2004.
> Conference Chair: John Watzke.
>
> The ISLS Conference directly follows the 2005 American Educational
> Research Association (AERA)  conference.
