ACCENTS IN VARIOUS CONTEXTS

'Accents' is an annual conference organized by the Department of
English Language and Applied Linguistics at University of Lodz,
Poland. It brings together researchers and teachers interested in
native and non-native accents of English, approached from a variety of
theoretical and/or practical perspectives. The key issues discussed
each year include individual accent characteristics, the dynamism of
accent usage, accent teaching and learning, and the methods and tools
for accent studies. The leitmotif of Accents 2024 revolves around
accent teaching and learning in different instructional contexts
including EFL, ESL, ELF, EIL as well as classroom-based or laboratory
research. Thus, different contexts and 21st-century challenges require
the application of appropriate research methodologies so as to analyse
and investigate pronunciation learning and its effectiveness.

Plenary speakers (in alphabetical order):
Prof.  Alice Henderson, Université Grenoble-Alpes, France
Prof.  Jose Antonio Mompeán Gonzalez, University of Murcia, Spain
