Meeting Description:

For the past 35 years, the ROC-TEFL conference has been well-known for
bringing together the best TEFL scholars and practitioners from all over the
world. Yet, although the field of TEFL is a part of the larger field of
Applied Linguistics, the word ''Applied Linguistics'' has not appeared as a
conference theme for almost a decade.

We believe that since Applied Linguistics is an interdisciplinary field that
deals with practical problems in language and communication, TEFL scholars and
all applied linguists share many similar interests for issues in language
knowledge and use. Most importantly, we believe that Applied Linguistics
research makes many important contributions to language teaching. 

The 2018 ROC-TEFL Conference, therefore, aims to provide a better links
between the body of knowledge accumulated in such fields as Psycholinguistics,
Sociolinguistics, Corpus Linguistics, and Second Language Acquisition, among
others, and the state of the art in TEFL. We hope that gathering of scholars
from different fields in Applied Linguistics at this conference will lead to a
vibrant conversation among all TEFL scholars and practitioners in Taiwan and
beyond.
