Meeting Description:

The Symposium of the Southern Ontario Universities on “Reimagining
Languages and Literacies in Education”
will take place in a hybrid mode October, 4-5, 2024 at Western
University campus.
The symposium is organized by the Faculty of Education at Western
University and the Center for Educational Research in Languages and
Literacies (CERLL) at OISE - University of Toronto in collaboration
with
 - The Department of Languages and Cultures at Western University;
 - The Department of Languages, Literatures and Linguistics and the
Faculty of Education at York University;
 - The Department of Germanic and Slavic Studies of the University of
Waterloo;
 - The Language Department of the University of Toronto Mississauga;
 - The Center for Education in Research at Niagara College

The symposium provides an opportunity for the faculty and the students
within the different departments involved and from the wider academic
community to exchange about their research and to network with their
peers. The participation in the symposium is a great learning
experience for all parties involved and facilitates collaboration
across different institutions and geographical locations.
The hybrid mode of the symposium allows for a broader international
dimension as well.

Cal for Papers:

Today’s diverse and complex societies constantly challenge scholars,
practitioners, and learners to re-evaluate and re-imagine their
understandings of theories and their impact on our practices.
Defaulting to traditional ways of thinking, clouds our vision and can
prevent us to see differently and think from multiple perspectives,
something which is crucial in our changing realities. This Symposium
aims to create a space for critical reflection to re-envision the
education of languages and literacies in ways that promote sustainable
and equitable futures.

This year’s Symposium will be the fifth Symposium of the Southern
Ontario Universities. As such, it has become an anticipated event for
faculties and students alike, to whom it offers a supportive setting
where they can exchange, discuss and learn from each other’s recent,
on-going or future research across different contexts, languages and
cultures. As in the previous editions, this year too these discussions
will be framed and enriched by two keynotes from two scholars,  one
from a local and one from an international context respectively, both
operating in the languages and literacies field.

We are excited to announce that the fifth Symposium of the Southern
Ontario Universities will take place October, 4-5, 2024 at Western
University and we invite you to submit contributions to one of the
three different strands (presentations, roundtable discussion, poster
presentations) in which participants will discuss new research
avenues, including:
●       bi-/multi-/trans-/plurilingualism in language education
●       multiliteracies and multimodalities
●       teachers’ and students’ agency
●       mobility, migration and inclusion
●       impact of language policies
●       innovation in language teaching methodologies and assessment
●       artificial intelligence in language education
●       language acquisition and language use
●       technology-assisted language learning and teaching
●       online learning and distance education
