Meeting Description:

The Institute of Linguistics, School of English at the University of Silesia
is pleased to announce the 33rd International Conference on Foreign and Second
Language Acquisition (ICFSLA). As it has been for over thirty years now, this
conference focuses on research in second language acquisition and foreign
language learning, relating to different aspects of both the teaching and
learning of second/foreign languages. This time we decided to focus among
other topics on the most recent research as well as the didactic experiences
determined by the ongoing pandemic of Covid-19.

Call for Papers:

The Institute of Linguistics, School of English at the University of Silesia
is pleased to announce the 33rd International Conference on Foreign and Second
Language Acquisition (ICFSLA). As it has been for over thirty years now, this
conference focuses on research in second language acquisition and foreign
language learning, relating to different aspects of both the teaching and
learning of second/foreign languages. This time we decided to focus among
other topics on the most recent research as well as the didactic experiences
determined by the ongoing pandemic of Covid-19.

It seems that the upcoming conference will be held face-to-face, though
unpredictability of the situation both pandemic and political, does not allow
us to confirm for sure.

The main topic of the upcoming 2022 conference is: Modern technologies in
foreign language teaching, learning and research. The presence of modern
technologies is not a new theme, as both didactic context as well as research
ideas have been informed by it for decades now so we are also interested in
some of these more traditional approaches and contributions. However, the main
idea behind the conference theme comes from our more recent experiences of
functioning in the largely different environment of online teaching, learning
and research. Thus, we thought that perhaps our annual conference during the
post-pandemic time when life will be given back to us can become a forum for
sharing the new ideas that have originated in this difficult period for us
all. We would like to share these experiences and to demonstrate how we all
managed to use modern technology to the best of the potential it offered but
also to approach it critically understanding its dangers and inadequacies. We
hope that this topic will attract a wide range of participants from different
academic institutions around the world and that this shared reflection will
enrich our perceptions of the way educational institutions function in their
didactic and research roles now and in the future.

Plenary Speakers:

Currently, we are happy to announce that the following scholars will present
the keynote talks at the 33rd ICFSLA conference:
- Larissa Aronin (Oranim Academic College of Education, Haifa)
- Prof. Regine Hampel (Open University, UK)
- Prof. Simone Pfenninger & Mason Wirtz (co-author) (University of Salzburg,
Salzburg)
- Prof. Arkadiusz Rojczyk (University of Silesia, Katowice)
- Prof. Maria Pilar Safont (Univeristat Jaume I, Castello de la Plana)
- Prof. David Singleton (Professor Emeritus, Trinity College, Dublin)

Important Date:
Abstracts for presentations have already been assessed and acceptance sent out
to the authors. However, if for some reason you missed the deadline, please
submit your abstract by the 31 March 2022 to our e-mail address:
szczyrkconference2022 at gmail.com
You will be notified about acceptance by 5 April 2022.
The book of abstracts for this year’s conference will be available online
mid-April.

Place and Dates:
Despite the success of last year´s online edition of ICFSLA, we are hoping
that the (post) pandemic situation will allow us to meet face-to-face. If this
be the case, the location of the conference will be in Szczyrk, the resort
town in the Beskidy Mountains of Southern Poland well-known to many of our
participants. The conference dates are 19 to 21 May 2022 (with the usual
option of an earlier arrival on Wednesday, May 18). The conference venue will
be our favourite Hotel META. All conference participants can be accommodated
there, but if for any reason you prefer to choose different accommodation, you
may. If you do not require any accommodation, please indicate this on your
registration form.
