Meeting Description:

The English Department and the Centre for Teacher Education and Professional
Development of the Faculty of Philosophy, University of Niš, are glad to
invite you to the Third international conference Teaching Languages and
Cultures in the Post-method Era: Challenges and Perspectives (TLC 2018), to be
held on October 26-27 2018, at the Faculty of Philosophy in Niš. We hope to
offer once again a multi-disciplinary forum that will bring scholars,
researchers and practitioners together, to present and discuss latest
research, policies and practices in the field of language and culture.   

The status of humanities in today's socio-economic context presents many
challenges to teaching - from how to empower students, make them responsible
and critical learners, over how to include digital literacy and humanities
into teaching, to how to get the actual practice to reflect the values of
humanistic education. Unfavourable conditions and questionable bureaucratic
policies, which education is facing globally today, place both new obstacles
and additional responsibilities on language and culture teachers today,
challenging the aims and practices of teacher education and professional
development, as well. We hope that this conference can be a place where we
will question the existing practices and seek solutions.


Call for Papers:

Abstracts are invited for individual (or co-authored) papers and workshops on
theoretical or applied aspects of foreign language learning and teaching,
including (but not limited to) teaching methodologies, developing
(intercultural) communicative competence, assessing language and culture,
teacher training and professional development, and language policies.

We encourage submissions that approach these topics from various perspectives;
we also welcome presentations on topics from any other field or discipline
related to or reflected in language and culture teaching.

Early-bird abstract submission deadline: June 1 2018
Acceptance notification for early submission: July 15 2018
 
Abstract submission deadline: July 1 2018 
Acceptance notification: August 1 2018
Full paper submission deadline: February 1 2019

Papers are to be submitted to the conference email address. The style sheet
will be available at https://tlcnis.weebly.com/paper-submission.html at a
later date.
