Meeting Description: 

Dear colleague,

LINGUAPOLIS is proud to announce its first Summer School on qualitative and 
quantitative research methods in language learning and teaching: 

A Toolbox for Design-Based Research
University of Antwerp, 16 to 20 August 2009.

Lecturers are Sven De Maeyer, PhD, and Vincent Donche, PhD (Institute for 
Education and Information Sciences, University of Antwerp).

The course will focus on methodological considerations in designing and 
conducting empirical research. We will highlight the practical issues involved 
in the use of qualitative and quantitative research methods. Insight will be 
given into the most commonly used data-collection techniques such as surveys, 
interviews, and observation. Further we will analyse how to generate more data-
driven conclusions.

The target group are researchers in language learning and teaching who need to 
investigate user data or results of specific design practices and experiments 
in a more evidence-based manner.

The number of participants is limited to 25. Timely registration (or
reservation) is therefore necessary.

Check http://summerschool.linguapolis.be for more information and registration 
or contact ann.aerts at ua.ac.be   

Kind regards,

Jozef Colpaert, director
Ann Aerts, event manager
