Meeting Description:

Interest in the importance of speech communication has been growing in recent
years, and phonetic knowledge is essential in the teaching of any language. In
our increasingly globalized society, educators involved in teaching
pronunciation and phonetics have an important role to play, but many feel
isolated and are uncertain about what and how to teach. Following on the
success of ISAPh2016 in Nagoya, Japan, this symposium continues the
opportunity to raise questions, discuss issues, share information, and in
particular: 

- To present research results and themes in phonetics/pronunciation education 
- To bring up issues and problems in relation to phonetics/pronunciation
education 
- To report on phonetics/pronunciation education in your country or
organization 

Topics include, but are not limited to: 

1. Teaching general phonetics to major students 
2. Teaching general phonetics to non-major students 
3. Teaching phonetics of a specific language 
4. Teaching pronunciation in monolingual classes 
5. Teaching pronunciation in multilingual classes 
6. Teaching L2 pronunciation in L1/L2 
7. Teaching pronunciation to adults 
8. Teaching pronunciation to young students 
9. Phonetics in teacher training 
10. Phonetics in immersion classes 
11. L2 pronunciation acquisition 
12. Teaching prosody 
13. Socio-phonetic factors in the classroom 
14. Phonetics/pronunciation training tools 
15. Technology for teaching phonetics/pronunciation 

Note that the famous ''Aizu Matsuri'' samurai festival will be held in
Aizuwakamatsu immediately following the conference (Sep. 22-24)!

Dr. Tracey M. Derwing (University of Alberta / Simon Fraser University)
