Contact Person: Grzegorz Drożdż

Linguistic Field(s): Applied Linguistics; Cognitive Science 

Call Deadline: 11-Mar-2018 

Meeting Description:

That cognitive linguistics has a lot to offer in the area of pedagogy has been
stressed since the very early stages of the enterprise (cf. Hubbard 1978;
Dirven 1989; Taylor 1993; Hubbard 1994). Today, these initial claims have
grown in number, precision, extent, as well as have gained substantial
empirical support (Pütz, Niemeier, Dirven 2001; Achard, Niemeier 2004; Boers,
Lindstromberg 2006; De Knopp, De Rycker 2008; Boers, Lindstromberg 2008; Holme
2009; Tyler 2012, to name but a few). Within this general area, several
specific directions of research can be distinguished: vocabulary teaching
(Kövecses, Szabó 1996; Lindstromberg 1998; Tyler, Evans 2001, 2003; Boers,
Lindstromberg 2008, etc.), grammar teaching (Hubbard 1978; Byrnes,
Weger-Guntharp, Sprang 2006; De Knopp, De Rycker 2008; Tyler 2012, etc.),
second and foreign language acquisition/ learning, language instruction
(Robinson, Ellis 2008, etc.), and the learner’s mind (Pütz, Sicola 2010,
etc.). While in each sphere a considerable progress can be observed, in each
of them there are still new and exciting territories that need exploration.


Call for Papers:

We invite abstracts for presentations that address any of the above and other
pedagogical applications of cognitive linguistics. The suggested topics
include (but are not restricted to) such dimensions of teaching and learning a
language: vocabulary, constructions, or grammar at all levels of proficiency,
language instruction in academic settings, mental processing and acquisition
procedures, second and foreign language acquisition/ learning, second and
foreign language instruction, etc.

Submission Guidelines:

Please submit your abstract of no more than 500 words (including references)
by March, 11 2018. Abstracts should be submitted in English or Polish.

Submission link: https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=ptjk2018

Your abstract should clearly state the scope and aims of your research, the
methodology applied, the (expected) results, etc. Above all, it must be
evident that your research lies within the cognitive linguistics enterprise.

Please do not include your name and affiliation in the abstract.

If the abstract you are submitting is for a particular theme session, please
include this information at the top of the abstract.
