Meeting Description:

The “digital revolution” has a profound impact on our society, affecting both
professional processes and everyday interactions as well as teaching and
learning practices in various contexts. How does applied linguistics respond
to this “revolution”? What role can it play to better understand the social
and educational dimensions of this digital transformation? What new areas of
study will emerge? And what new research methods will develop?

This conference will explore the challenges and opportunities of
digitalization for linguistics along three themes:

- new technologies and communication;
- learning, teaching, and digital tools;
- the methodological and analytical possibilities of digitalization.

Plenary Speakers:

- Noah Bubenhofer (Zürcher Hochschule für Angewandte Wissenschaften,
Switzerland)
- Louise Amélie Cougnon (UCLouvain, Belgium)
- Florence Oloff (University of Oulu, Finland)
