Meeting Description:

The Eleventh International Conference on Language Teacher Education welcomes
proposals for papers and symposia on all aspects of the education and
professional development of language teachers. Papers and symposia may report
on empirical research, theoretical and conceptual analyses, or practices in
language teacher education.

The mission of this unique biennial conference is to address the education of
teachers of all languages, at all instructional and institutional levels, and
in all the many national and international contexts in which this takes place,
including: English as a Second or Foreign Language (ESL/EFL) instruction;
foreign/world language teaching; bilingual education; immersion education;
indigenous and minority language education; heritage language education; and
the teaching of less commonly taught languages. The conference aims to bring
together teacher educators from these many contexts to discuss and share
research, theory, and best practices and to initiate and sustain meaningful
professional dialogue across languages, levels, and settings.

The conference will focus on the following four broad themes:

The Knowledge Base of Language Teacher Education
Social, Cultural, and Political Contexts of Language Teacher Education
Collaborations in Language Teacher Education
Practices of Language Teacher Education

Invited Speakers:

Cori Crane, Duke University
Richard Donato, University of Pittsburgh
Maggie Kubanyiova, University of Leeds
Suhanthie Motha, University of Washington

Acquisition at the University of Minnesota in partnership with the American

Educational Resources in Culture, Language, and Literacy at the University of
Arizona, and the Center for Urban Language Teaching and Research at Georgia
State University.


Call for Papers:

Deadline: January 18, 2019

Types of Sessions:

Symposia (2 hours): A symposium provides an opportunity for a group of
individuals (maximum six) to propose a specific issue or topic in the field of
language teacher education and examine it from a variety of perspectives.
Total presentation time is limited to one hour to ensure that at least half of
the session engages presenters and the audience in extended dialogue.

Papers (25 minutes): A paper involves a 25-minute presentation on a topic
related to one of the four themes (maximum three presenters). Papers will be
grouped thematically when possible. Grouped paper presentation sessions will

within one of the four conference themes listed above.
