*60th Annual Conference of the International Linguistic AssociationTeachers
College, Columbia University, April 24-26, 2015*



*Extended Deadline!  Saturday, January 31, 2015Theme: Linguistics and
Education - Honoring Franklin E. Horowitz*

On the occasion of the 60th Annual Conference of the International
Linguistic Association, we pay special tribute to Franklin Horowitz, who
has been an active and dedicated member of the ILA from its earliest years,
serving both as an ongoing member of the Executive Board and as ILA's
president from 1999 to 2002. A professor of linguistics at Teachers
College, Columbia University for over 35 years, Frank’s enthusiasm for
language inspired legions of students, who continue the work of teaching
linguistics to their own students around the world. His influence has been
enormous, both as a leader of the ILA and as a teacher. Thus, this year’s
theme reflects the mark he has left on those who have worked with and
learned from him.

*Plenary Speakers*
Ellen Bialystok, York University
William Labov, University of Pennsylvania
Raymond McDermott, Stanford University
Jacob Mey, University of Southern Denmark

*Invited Panels*
*WORD Global Roundtable.* On the occasion of the re-launch of WORD, journal
of the ILA, Teachers College, Columbia University and Beijing Normal
University will host a simulcast roundtable co-chaired by WORD's managing
editor Jonathan J. Webster and ILA's president, Jo Anne Kleifgen. Our
panelists will be Sheila Embleton, Michael Halliday, Ruqayia Hasan, William
Labov, and Jacob Mey.

*Rethinking the Relationship between Linguistics and Education*. Betsy
Rymes, Andrea Leone, Mark Lewis, Robert Moore and Nelson Flores of the
University of Pennsylvania's Graduate school of Education, will explore
themes in language research in education.

*Workshops for Teachers*
*The Writer's Sentence: From Casual to Formal Writing*. Alice Deakins of
William Paterson University and colleagues will present four increasingly
complex levels of the English sentence, including both grammatical
conventions and stylistic power. At each level, the structure of the
sentence will be discussed followed by practice in a game format.

Having Fun with Words. Kate Parry of Hunter College, CUNY and colleagues
will focus on the problem of learning infrequently encountered vocabulary.
Participants will engage in games or exercises requiring interactive
discussion about the selected words. Materials that teachers can use with
their students will be provided.

*Call for Papers* *-- Deadline, January 31, 2015*
We invite papers related to the various subfields of linguistics as they
are applied to education. The influence of linguistics on education is
wide-ranging. It encompasses the teaching of second and foreign languages;
the education of emergent bilinguals and speakers of various dialects;
educating for language awareness, linguistic diversity, and equity;
research on language and the Internet; language planning and policy
studies; the critique of political and media discourse; and the
revitalization of indigenous and endangered languages. The ILA invites
submissions that explore these and other connections between linguistics
and education.
Topics that might be addressed under this theme:
•    Methods for teaching linguistic structures
•    Second and foreign language instruction
•    Dialects, diversity, and language awareness
•    Bi/multilingualism and education
•    Indigenous education and language revitalization
•    Linguistics in teacher education
•    Literacy and writing systems
•    Digital literacies
•    Language planning and policy
•    Language, power, and ideology
•    Classroom Discourse
In keeping with the ILA tradition, we also welcome proposals that treat
other areas of linguistics.
