Meeting Description:

The 2nd Pan-Pacific Technology Enhanced Language Learning (PPTELL 2019) aims
to create an opportunity for experienced researchers to present their latest
research findings in language learning in smart learning environments. Through
intra-disciplinary and interdisciplinary interactions, this conference
establishes a goal to promote diverse forms of cooperation between academia
and industry and to present thriving development of TELL.

Call for Papers:

With the rapid growth of information and communications technologies during
the last 50 years, research in language learning has introduced significant
innovations in learning approaches and teaching paradigms. Many studies have
assessed the viability of implementing technologies, such as virtual reality,
mobile devices, social-networking technology, and MOOCs for language learning.
A tremendous amount of research calls for a need to address the issue of smart
learning environments (SLE) in the field of technology-enhanced language
learning. Such a need aims to examine crucial elements in language learning
such as effectiveness, flexibility and adaptability, and to reflect previous
findings from the perspective of SLE. Below are the three main questions
researchers in this field have been dealing with:

(1) How to afford contextual sufficiency for language learning environments in
terms of social constructivism, ontology and epistemology?

(2) How to create dynamic paths with personalized learning settings catering
for language learners' different cognition, behavioral habits, social
psychology and emotions?

(3) What are the principles and methods a teacher may adopt to enhance
efficiency, engagement, flexibility and adaptability in smart language
learning?

To answer the aforementioned questions, PPTELL 2019 invites researchers to
share the findings of their innovative works that contain relevant topics in
the forms of oral presentations or keynote speeches. This conference will be a
platform for knowledge exchange between domestic and international
participants.

PPTELL 2019 focuses on the following themes related to smart language learning
environments:

- Constructivism in technology-enhanced language learning

- Cognitivism in technology-enhanced language learning

- Personalized language learning methods including
(1) learning style and strategy,
(2) cognitive needs (as for struggling learners), and
(3) learning anxiety and motivation

- Affordances and constraints of collaboration in virtual worlds for language
learning

- Affordances and constraints of collaboration in mobile assisted language
learning

- The relations between social activities and smart language learning

- The roles of emotions, habits, and the chronology of experienced events in
smart language learning

- The deployment of smart language learning environments,
  instructional systems and performance technologies with the following
directions of investigation:

1.Effective, efficient or autonomous learning

2.Engaging, flexible or adaptive factors

3.Learners' creativity

PPTELL 2019 sincerely invites abstract submission that shows the originality
of theories or practical works focusing on language learning in smart learning
environments.

A submitted abstract is restricted to 500 words and is suggested to follow the
organization below:

(1) Title of the abstract,

(2) Content, and

(3) References.

The due date of abstract submission is 31 January 2018. Authors will receive a
notification with reviewers' comments by 28 February 2019. Abstracts should be
submitted in both MS Word and PDF formats online to Upload abstract (PPTELL
2019 .doc and PDF files):

http://pptell2019.tcsl.ntnu.edu.tw/index.php?inter=upload

Prior to submission, please read the conference templates (PDF version / MS
Word version) carefully. Submissions must not be published previously or under
consideration for publication. They will be double-blind peer-reviewed. The
review process will focus on whether there are original and systematic
contributions through theoretical and empirical methods.

The authors of the accepted abstracts will be invited to submit their full
papers for publication in the conference proceeding with ISBN number. The
deadline for submission of full papers is 15 March 2019.
