We welcome proposals for 20-minute presentations from colleagues
teaching all languages at all ranks (including language program
directors/coordinators/supervisors, tenure-track and non-tenure track
faculty, instructors, and graduate students). Proposals may be either
practice-oriented or research-oriented, as long as they have practical
implications of relevance to language programs in post-secondary
settings in the United States. Proposals must fall under one of two
strands:
Strand 1: Language Teaching and Learning - Topics that fit this strand
include, but are not limited to:
- Research-based pedagogical approaches
- Technology integration, including AI
- Experiential learning
- Assessment of instructional outcomes
- Teaching for diversity, inclusion, equity, access, and social
justice
- Intercultural competence
- Students’ and instructors’ perceptions
- Content-based instruction (e.g., language for specific purposes,
languages across the curriculum, language-content integration)
Strand 2: Language Program Direction - Topics that fit this strand
include, but are not limited to:
- Supervision and professional development of teaching assistants and
other language educators
- Language teaching methods courses
- Evaluation and professional development of language program
directors
- Program evaluation and articulation
- Curriculum development and revision
- Mission, vision, and objectives of language programs
- Student recruitment and retention
- Selection and development of instructional materials
- Course placement practices
- Contextual factors (e.g., small programs, less commonly taught
languages, multi-section programs, multi-language departments)
SUBMISSION INSTRUCTIONS:
You may submit only one proposal as lead presenter. You may be listed
as a co-presenter on one additional proposal. All proposals must be
written in English.
In addition to providing the name(s) and affiliation(s) of each
presenter, your submission must also include an uploaded file with the
following elements:
- a title (15 words maximum)
- an abstract (300 words maximum)
- a 50-word summary to be included in the program
Important: The file you upload must not contain any personal
identifying information; if it does, your submission will not be
considered.
Only proposals submitted through EasyAbs on June 1, 2025 by 11:59 PM
(Central Time) will be considered. If you do not already have an
EasyAbs account, you will need to create one before submitting your
proposal on the submission site for SOLPHE 2025.
