Call for Papers:
We are pleased to announce an extension for abstract submissions to
the Learner Corpus Research Graduate Conference 2025, organized under
the aegis of the Learner Corpus Association. The revised submission
deadline is April 25, 2025.
LCRGrad25 will be hosted by the Chair of English and Digital
Linguistics, Chemnitz University of Technology, and will take place
virtually on 22-23-24 October 2025.
The main aim of the conference, as in the previous editions, is to
offer a space for MA and PhD students as well as researchers who have
earned their doctoral degree in the last two years prior to the
conference to discuss their (ongoing) projects. Researchers who
already hold a doctoral degree are welcome and strongly encouraged to
attend as panelists, mentors or non-presenting delegates, helping to
ensure a fruitful academic dialogue and to foster the careers of
graduate students and recent graduates within the field of Learner
Corpus Research.
The central theme of this year’s conference is “The Pattern Beneath”.
This theme celebrates the unique role of learner corpus research in
uncovering the underlying structures and patterns of learner language
through LCR. It emphasizes the field’s potential to provide insights
into second language acquisition, linguistic development, and the
intricacies of language use in educational contexts.
We invite submissions across a range of formats to foster diverse
discussions and engagement:
• Papers (20-minute presentation): Original, completed research with
substantial findings.
• Work-in-Progress Paper (15-minute presentation): Presentation of
ongoing research for feedback, collaborative discussions and ideas for
improvement.
• Workshops or Software Demonstrations (45-60 minutes): Hands-on,
interactive sessions or demonstrations of corpus tools or
technologies.
• Roundtable Discussions (45 minutes): Topic proposals for
collaborative and in-depth discussions among participants are welcome.
• Panel Proposals (90 minutes): A panel with 3–4 speakers ideally
made up of supervisors/senior researchers and graduate students on one
of the sub-themes of LCRGrad25.
• Posters: Completed research or works-in-progress in a visually
engaging format. Digital posters are to be submitted with a short
video (max. 3 minutes) prior to the start of the conference. The
videos will be made available throughout the conference for
asynchronous comments and questions.
The call for papers and abstract submission guidelines can be found on
the conference website: https://lcrgrad2025.tu-chemnitz.de
