Meeting Description:

The European Second Language Association (EuroSLA) is a society for people
with a research interest in second languages. EuroSLA has grown from small
beginnings to become a large international group of scholars. We welcome new
members whatever your nationality, your geographical location or your
theoretical and methodological preferences. Our annual conferences are
organised by members of the society in different European countries each year.
EuroSLA conferences aim to bring together researchers from different
disciplines who investigate the acquisition, use, and processing of language
in situations where more than one language is involved.

Academic programme:

The academic programme will consist of presentations by the participants and
the invited keynote speakers (Raphael Berthele (Fribourg, Switzerland),
Claudia Felser (Potsdam, Germany), Johanne Paradis (Edmonton, Canada),
Marianne Starren (Nijmegen, The Netherlands)), as well as the doctoral student
workshop, and the Language Learning Roundtable (topic: the relation between
learner grammar and input).

Call for Papers:

EUROSLA 28
Wednesday, September 5 – Saturday, September 8, 2018
University of Münster, Germany
www.uni-muenster.de/EuroSLA/

We are inviting proposals for presentations at Eurosla 28. All areas and
approaches to the study of learning second/foreign/additional languages are
welcome. 

Types of presentations

1) Individual paper (length of presentation: 20+10 min.)
2) Colloquium with either 3 or 5 thematically related papers (length of a
colloquium: 90 or 150 min., depending on the number of papers) 
3) Poster (A0, portrait)
4) Paper at the doctoral student workshop (length of presentation: 15+15

our website (www.uni-muenster.de/EuroSLA/)

Abstract submission information
The submission of presentation proposals opens on January 31st, 2018, and
closes on February 28th, 2018. The proposals are submitted by filling in an
online form (https://evis.events/event/16/abstracts/).
The proposals for all presentations will be evaluated anonymously by at least
two members of the Eurosla Scientific committee. The criteria include the
quality of the content and the clarity of the abstract, contribution to the
field and thematic relevance. Colloquia will also be assessed according to
range and coherence of the papers.
Presentation acceptances will be sent out by the end of April 2018.

Length of abstracts:

- Individual paper, paper at the doctoral student workshop, or poster: max.
3000 characters (incl. spaces), including references 
- Colloquium: general abstract (max. 2000 characters (incl. spaces), including
references) + abstracts for each paper (each max. 3000 characters (incl.
spaces), including references). The general abstract should describe the topic
of the colloquium and thus enable the reviewer to assess range and coherence
of the papers. A colloquium as a whole can only be accepted if the overall
quality of all included abstracts is high enough. If a colloquium is rejected,
individual papers can still be accepted as papers in parallel sessions. Please
note that only a limited number of colloquia can be accepted. Prior to
submitting a colloquium, please send us an informal email to
colloquium.eurosla at uni-muenster.de before January 15, 2018.

Language policy:

The working language of the conference is English but presentations are also
welcome in other European languages. 

Presenter policy:

Each participant can appear as the first author of one presentation only. A
colloquium convener can also present at the colloquium or elsewhere in the
programme.  

Student stipends;

As in previous years, several student stipends will be available for doctoral
students. For more information please visit our website
