Meeting Description:

Bilingualism Matters Research Symposium (BMRS), October 25-26, 2022. 
BMRS will take place in Edinburgh and will be live-streamed. 
Presenters and attendees will be able to choose to attend virtually or in
person.
 
BMRS is an annual interdisciplinary research conference organised by
Bilingualism Matters (https://www.bilingualism-matters.org).
 
We welcome abstracts now and we are looking forward to seeing you this fall!
 
Abstract submission is open until June 30, 2022.  

 
The BMRS22 plenary speakers are:
Ludovica Serratrice, professor of bi- and multilingualism at the University of
Reading and Director of the Centre for Literacy and Multilingualism 
 
Joseph Lo Bianco, professor emeritus at the Melbourne Graduate School of
Education and former Chief Executive of the National Languages and Literacy
Institute of Australia


Call for Papers:

Abstracts will be considered for two types of presentation: oral presentation
(the presenter will deliver a 15-minute oral presentation) or poster
(presenter will produce a digital poster). 
All abstracts must be submitted in English.

Abstracts cannot exceed the limit of 500 words, excluding tables and
references. Describe in your abstract how your research is relevant to the
needs of the general public, professionals (health, education, etc.),
policymakers and others.

Figures, tables, examples and references may be uploaded in a separate file. 
Abstracts must be submitted directly to the Easy Chair online form. They can
also be uploaded in a separate file but in this case, they MUST NOT contain
any names of authors, only the title. Authors can indicate a preference for an
oral or poster presentation. However, the Programme Committee reserves the
right to decide on the final format.

rigour - is the theoretical background clearly described? Are the arguments
sound, clear, and logical? Availability of results - What is the stage of the
research? Are results available? Presentation - Is the writing clear? Is it
appropriately organized? Is the length appropriate? Social relevance - Does
the research have the potential to be relevant to non-academic audiences? Is
it explained clearly?
