International Conference
7th and 8th June 2007
Foreign Language Teaching in Tertiary Education 2

Subject areas
1.    Re(-structuring) of curricula
In the first subject area we welcome abstracts dealing with the 
methodology,
experience, and feedback from an initial curriculum introduction and the
restructuring of both undergraduate and postgraduate curricula involving 
the
study of languages.
2.    Teaching linguistic skills in tertiary education
Abstracts dealing with the teaching of linguistic skills in tertiary 
education
fall within the framework of this subject area. The term linguistic skill
should be conceived in a wider sense encompassing not only the traditional
skills (listening, reading, writing and speaking) but also communication
techniques such as translation, interpreting, the application of 
Information and
communication technology in class, etc.
3.    Teaching foreign languages interdisciplinarily and interculturally
In the third subject area we welcome abstracts dealing both with the
interdisciplinary instruction of foreign languages (LSP) and with teaching
focusing on the cultural aspects of interlingual communication.
4.    Foreign Languages and Management
In the fourth subject area we welcome abstracts dealing with the 
relationship
between foreign languages and management both in the public and in the 
private
sector. The proposed papers should go into the poorly researched 
interaction
between foreign languages and management.
The abstracts should not exceed 300 words (in Greek or English), and 
they should
have the following form:
-    Title of paper
-    Name of author and affiliation
-    Text
The abstract should be sent by e-mail by 28th February 2007 to one of the
following addresses:
Themistocles Gogas thegogasteiep.gr
Stefanos Vlachopoulos vlach-cfotenet.gr
The abstracts will be reviewed by the scientific committee. The 
applicants will
be notified regarding the acceptance or not of their proposal by the end of
March and they will receive instructions for the preparation of the 
final papers.
For any queries concerning the conference, please contact us at one of
