Meeting Description: 

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/modern/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 four broad themes: The Knowledge Base of Language
Teacher Education; Social, Cultural, and Political Contexts of Language
Teacher Education; Collaborations in Language Teacher Education; and Practices
of Language Teacher Education.
