Meeting Description:

In many ways, language education is an endeavour to cross borders. In the most
obvious sense, it involves crossing the borders separating linguistic
communities. In a different sense, it involves crossing the borders between
the various disciplines that inform the profession. It also involves crossing
the practitioner – theoretical divide. This conference aims to bring together
language teachers, researchers and scholars to discuss the various boundaries
that they cross regularly in the contexts of their work, and to reflect on
their permeability.

Academic Programme:

We are pleased to announce that plenary presentations will be delivered by:  

- Michael Hoey 
- Claire Kramsch
- Amos Paran
- Barbara Seidlhofer
- Janez Skela
- Penny Ur


Call for Papers:

We would like to invite proposals for individual papers (20 minutes, followed
by a 10-minute discussion), symposia (90 minutes), workshops (90 minutes), and
posters focusing on the theme of borders in language education. Submissions
can have a theoretical, empirical and/or practical focus. Submissions that
make connections between the domains are particularly welcome. The conference
intends to address issues applicable to all foreign language teaching and
learning. A non-exhaustive list of possible topics includes:

- Applied Linguistics
- Assessment and Feedback
- Bilingual Education
- Content and Language Integrated Learning 
- Cross-curricular Learning
- E-learning
- English as a Lingua Franca
- Inclusive Education
- Intercultural Learning
- Language Policy
- Language Teacher Education
- Languages for Specific Purposes
- Literacies
- Literature & Language Education
- Multilingualism & Plurilingualism
- Practitioner Research
-  Psychology of Language Learning and Teaching
- Study Abroad
- Task-Based Learning
- Teaching Methodologies
- Technology Enhanced Language Learning
- Translation

The main conference language is English, but there will also be a strand
dedicated to papers presented in German. The visibility of languages other
than English (e.g., in content as well as on handouts or slides) is highly
encouraged.

i. For individual papers and posters, authors should submit an anonymous
abstract (200 words max., including any references) 
ii. For symposia, please submit an anonymous abstract (500 words, including
references), outlining the theme of the symposium, rationale and including
titles of the proposed papers. 
iii. For workshops, a 500-word abstract should be submitted, outlining the
structure of the workshop and intended audience and outcomes, and making clear
in what ways the workshop will be interactive.

Further information about the submission process, registration fees etc. will
be made available on the following webpage from December onwards:
