The 8th TALGS (TESOL/ Applied Linguistic Graduate Students) conference will be held at East Carolina University on Saturday, February 19, 2011. Organized by the Linguistics and TESOL graduate students and faculty, TALGS aims to provide a serious yet relaxed environment for graduate students and professionals working in TESL/TEFL/FL and a variety of applied linguistics fields to present their work, receive feedback, and network. The TALGS Conference provides graduate students as well as TESOL and other Foreign Language professionals (including ESOL, TESL, EFL, ESL, TEFL, Spanish, French, German, DLI, etc.) a forum to showcase their research and successful teaching practices. TALGS is committed to bettering the educational experiences of language learners in the community by providing a comfortable environment where an interaction between theory/ research and practice/ teaching is possible.

This year's plenary speaker will be a distinguished scholar and educator, Dr. Ofélia García, Professor of Urban Education at the City University of New York.

We encourage submission from a variety of fields that can contribute to an understanding of language use, language teaching and/or language learning. We welcome cross-disciplinary proposal submissions. For instance, proposals with relevance to language learning from the fields of sociolinguistics, sociology, education, foreign languages, and psychology will be considered. Proposals grounded in action research (inside and outside the classroom), works in progress, and pilot research are also welcome. 

 

Continuing Education Units will be offered.
