Call for Papers:

Venue:
Dublin City University

The conference considers all aspects of the linguistic and sociolinguistic
competences and practices of bi-/multilingual speakers who cross existing
social and linguistic boundaries, adopting or adapting themselves to new and
overlapping linguistic spaces. We invite papers in all areas of research in
bi-/multilingualism, whether or not linked directly to the overarching
conference theme, including, but not limited to, linguistics,
sociolinguistics, psycholinguistics, neurolinguistics, clinical linguistics,
education, bi-/multilingual societies.

Topics will include:

- (multiple) language acquisition and learning (L3, L4, Lx);
- psycho- and neurolinguistics of multilingualism;
- translanguaging;
- early bilingualism and heritage language development;
- speech processing in bi-/multilinguals;
- trans/multilingual language use in different contexts;
- multilingual education;
- bi-/multiculturalism;
- bi-/multilingual language policies;
- literacy in multiple languages (pluriliteracy);
-intercultural and globalisation issues related to multilingualism;
- multilingualism in business/economics;
- multilingualism and digital media;
- multilingualism in literature and translation.

Proposals:

The two categories of proposals are: (1) individual papers and (2) posters.

Individual papers: Papers are formal presentations on original research by one
or more authors, lasting a total of 30 minutes (20 minutes for presentation
and 10 minutes for discussion). Please note that the time limit will be
strictly adhered to.

Posters: Poster sessions are for displaying research that offers the
opportunity for individualised, informal discussion of the research.

Posters are especially effective for presenting work-in-progress, fieldwork
and results of empirical research if data can be presented visually (e.g.
charts, graphs, tables). A block of time will be designated when presenters
are available to discuss their posters. Posters should be in the size of DIN
A1 or A0 in portrait format. There will be a time slot dedicated to poster
presentations.

Abstracts should be up to 300 words in length (including references).

The language of the conference is English.

Submission of Proposals:

Submission is already open and will close on 15 February 2020. Presenters are
requested to include their name, affiliation and email address in the
submitted MS-Word documents. All proposals should be sent to:
mtp.dublin at gmail.com

Evaluation of Proposals:

Proposals will be evaluated in terms of quality of content, significance,
originality, thematic relevance, and presentation.

IMPORTANT: Conference Presentation Policies

Each participant may submit a maximum of one proposal as first author, whether
a paper or a poster. The same individual can still be a co-author of another
proposal. However, s/he will NOT be allowed to present two papers. In
addition, ONLY ONE certificate will be awarded for a presentation where s/he
is the main author. Please, note that only three authors are permitted per
proposal.

It is assumed that all proposals represent original and unpublished work that
is not yet available to the research community. The presenter must be a
registered attending participant at the conference. The conference policy is
that the author will present the paper on the day and time assigned by the
conference organising committee.
