postgraduate students and will not consider abstracts from those individuals
who have already received their doctoral award.

Submission Guidelines:

Individual papers are formal presentations on an original contribution to the
field by one or more speakers. Each presentation will be 20 minutes in length,
followed by 10 minutes for discussion. Each individual paper presentation will
be grouped with other presentations to be part of a longer session based on
theme. All submissions will be blind peer-reviewed.

Language and Cognition
Language Pedagogy
Literacy Studies (Reading, Writing, & Literature)
Multimodality/Visual Analysis/Semiotics

We are also happy to accept and consider abstracts on other topics not listed
above.

Proposal Format:

Abstracts should be submitted through the designated website. All submissions
should include a title, a full abstract, and a shortened summary of the
abstract. The summary is a more concise statement of what will be learned in
the presentation. Summaries will be used in the program book to describe each
individual presentation. Please note the following word limits for
submissions:

Abstract: 300 Words
Summary: 50 Words

Evaluation of Proposals:
