CALL FOR ABSTRACTS
The Third Conference on Afroasiatic Linguistics, organized by the CNRS
Laboratoire "Langues, Langage et Cognition", Universiti de Nice-Sophia
Antipolis, is to be held at Sophia Antipolis, France, June 27-29, 1996
(co-organizers: Ur Shlonsky, Universiti de Genhve; Jean Lowenstamm,
Universiti de Paris 7 et 2LC). The aim of the Conference is to promote
research in theoretical linguistics in relation to Afroasiatic
languages. The editorial committee hopes to undertake the publication
of a collection of papers based on the presentations at the colloquium,
a sequel to the volume entitled 'Studies in Afro-Asiatic Grammar',
currently in preparation.
Abstracts are invited for thirty minutes talks in all areas of syntax,
morphology and phonology. Abstracts should be no less than one page and
may not exceed two pages. Send three anonymous copies of the abstracts
and one copy with the name of author(s) and institution(s). Include a
card containing the following information: name of author(s), title of
the paper, address and affiliation, phone number, fax and e-mail address
(if available).
Abstracts must be received by February 1, 1996. E-mail or Fax
submissions are accepted. Send only one anonymous abstract in this case.
All abstracts will be anonymously reviewed. Send all material to:

Call for Contributions:
_Concepts and Practice of Network-Based Language Teaching_
Mark Warschauer, University of Hawaii at Manoa
Richard Kern, University of California at Berkeley
We are submitting a proposal to Cambridge University Press Applied
Linguistics Series (series editors Michael Long and Jack Richards) for an
edited volume on the concepts and practice of computer network-based
language teaching (i.e., involving the Internet, local area networks, or
other forms of electronic communication).
It is intended that the book will be solidly based on second language
acquisition theory and research and that its principle audience will
be faculty and graduate students (e.g., as a text in graduate courses in
applied linguistics, TESOL, and foreign language education).
We are seeking two types of chapter submissions:
(1) Critical analyses of the concepts of network-based teaching as they
relate to aspects of language acquistion theory or educational theory
(for example, consideration of relationships of network-based language
teaching to cognitive, psycholinguistic, sociolinguistic, sociocultural,
literary, or critical pedagogical theories).
(2) Theoretically-grounded empirical studies of the practice of
network-based teaching. Chapters on classroom practice should include a
review of the literature, a detailed description of the research methods
used, an in-depth analysis and discussion of the data, and implications for
teaching and future research. Analyses can be qualititative or
quantitative, and can explore multiple types of variables (e.g., process,
product, cognitive, social, affective, contextual).
Timeline/Deadlines:
1. Dec. 1, 1995: Notification of interest
Please send an email message to Mark Warschauer (markw at hawaii.edu) or
Richard Kern (kernrg at uclink.berkeley.edu) notifying us of your possible
interest in submitting an abstract as well as the likely topic.
2. Jan. 15, 1996: Submission of abstract
Please send one packet to each editor including:

information (address, telephone, e-mail, and fax number);
one page with the title and abstract of the proposed chapter (maximum 1-2
pages, single spaced);
your complete cv, including previous publications

The editors:
Mark Warschauer is a researcher at the National Foreign Language Resource
Center of the University of Hawaii. His publications include _E-Mail for
English Teaching: Bringing the Internet and Computer Learning Networks
into the Language Classroom_ (TESOL Publications, 1995) and _Virtual
Connections: Online Activities & Projects for Networking Language Learners_
(University of Hawaii, in press).
Richard Kern is Assistant Professor of French and Director of the French
language program at the University of California at Berkeley. His research
interests include reading and writing in a foreign language and the use of
networked computers to facilitate communicative language use. He has
published articles in The Modern Language Journal, Foreign Language Annals,
Canadian Modern Language Review, and Studies in Second Language
Acquisition.
Thank you very much for your interest. We hope that this book will play
an important role in bringing together the most advanced research on this
topic and making it available to faculty, researchers, graduate
students, and interested teachers. We are looking forward to hearing
from you and to receiving your abstracts.
