Subject: Bicontinental Conference (March 15-17 Madison-WI; May 24-26 Paris)- Language Education Policy and Identities Inclusion: Cultivating Distinctiveness

Bicontinental Conference (please disseminate)
Language Education Policy and Identities Inclusion: Cultivating Distinctiveness
March 15-17 at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, USA; opening on March 14 evening.
May 24-26 at the University of Paris Sorbonne Nouvelle, France; opening on May 23 evening.
Language Education Policy and Identities Inclusion: Cultivating Distinctiveness
Language Education Policy (LEP) is the process through which the ideals, goals, and content of a language policy can be realized in education practices.
Aims

1. Bring together researchers with no occasion to meet otherwise (as they work in different regions) to present a diversity of experiences, training, and approaches. This will foster debate on methodology, analytical means, and interpretation.

2. Discuss theoretical and methodological approaches as practiced in social research on migrant and refugee education. The conference will illustrate particular language education policies and practices as a framework for discussion.

Part 1: LEP and the Perceived Identities of Immigrant Children

This will be in the United States at the University of Wisconsin–Madison, March 15-17, 2017 and comprise discussion of the research methods and approaches in various parts of the world. All the invited scholars will participate in the discussions and debate. We favor discussions, formal presentations will be few, only to initiate dialogue and focus on productive work. On the final day, we will debate the directions of the field and whether shared practices should be advocated.

Part 2: LEP and Inclusion

This will be in France at the University of Paris 3 Sorbonne Nouvelle, May 24–26, 2017 and include case studies enabling better interpretations of human experiences, followed by roundtable sessions to examine future directions for field research and educational solutions. On the final day, we will create a research group and discuss the development of a website and the format for the resulting publication from the conference.
