Call for Papers:
The 2026 Taiwan CALL & Glo-CALL Joint Conference brings researchers,
educators, and practitioners together to explore pedagogy and practice
in technology-enhanced language learning with a focus on inclusion,
adaptation, and engagement. Participants will discuss state-of-the-art
technology used to enhance language learning from theoretical and/or
practical perspectives, with special attention to accessibility and
equity.
The theme of this conference is “CALL for All: Inclusive, Adaptive,
and Engaging Language Learning,” focusing on how technology can be
designed and implemented to serve diverse learners with varying needs,
backgrounds, and abilities. We invite senior scholars, early-career
researchers, and promising graduate students from both domestic and
international backgrounds to share their insights on inclusive design
principles, adaptive learning systems, and engagement strategies in
language learning.
Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
Inclusive Design and Accessibility:
Universal Design for Learning (UDL) principles in CALL
Accessibility features for learners with disabilities
Multi-modal learning interfaces and adaptive technologies
Cultural responsiveness in language learning technology
Digital equity and bridging the digital divide
Adaptive Learning Systems:
Personalized learning pathways and content adaptation
AI-driven learner modeling and recommendation systems
Adaptive assessment and feedback mechanisms
Learning analytics for individualized instruction
Intelligent tutoring systems for diverse learners
Engagement and Motivation:
Gamification strategies for inclusive learning environments
Social learning platforms and community building
Motivation and agency in technology-enhanced learning
Collaborative learning tools and peer interaction
Emotional AI and affective computing in language learning
Diverse Learner Populations:
CALL for heritage language learners
Technology solutions for refugee and immigrant populations
Supporting neurodivergent learners in digital environments
Age-inclusive design across lifespan learning
Gender-sensitive approaches to language learning technology
Global Perspectives and Localization:
Cross-cultural adaptation of learning technologies
Indigenous language preservation and revitalization through technology
Low-resource language support and development
Global South perspectives on educational technology
Decolonizing approaches to language learning technology
Research Methodologies:
Inclusive research design and methodology
Participatory design approaches with diverse communities
Ethical considerations in CALL research
Mixed-methods approaches to studying learner diversity
Longitudinal studies on technology adoption and adaptation
Types of Submissions
The conference features three types of presentations:
Oral Presentations: The presentations should report on original
research related to CALL, with a focus on inclusion, adaptation, or
engagement. The duration of a presentation is 20 minutes, including
time for discussion.
Poster Presentations: These presentations should contain clear visuals
and information that are easy for attendees to read and that the
presenters can elaborate on. Posters will remain on display throughout
the two days of the conference; however, each poster presentation
session will be for only one hour. Presenters should be present for
the duration of their scheduled session.
Technology Showcases: These sessions focus on hands-on demonstrations
of inclusive and adaptive learning tools. Presentations are conducted
in an informal setting, with all presenters showcasing simultaneously.
Attendees may approach each presenter to discuss the technology
individually. Each session lasts 1 hour.
Proposal Submissions:
Submitted proposals are restricted to 300 words. The deadline for
abstract submission is Nov. 30, 2025. Authors will receive reviewers’
comments by January 30, 2026. Abstracts should be submitted online in
both MS Word and PDF formats. Submission link:
https://conference.twcall.org/index.php?inter=guidesubmit
To accommodate as many researchers as possible, each author is only
allowed to submit and present one proposal as the first presenter. In
addition to that, an author may be listed as a co-presenter for up to
three papers. Multiple submissions are allowed; the first presenter
may only present one paper.  
Prior to submission, please read and follow the conference templates
carefully. Submissions must not have been published previously. All
submissions will undergo double-blind peer review by members of the
review committee. Reviews will evaluate originality, quality, and
contributions to inclusive, adaptive, or engaging language learning.
Important Dates:
Deadline for Abstract Submission: November 30, 2025
Notification of Abstract Acceptance: January 30, 2026
Deadline for Registration of all Presenters: February 15, 2026
Release of a preliminary conference program: March 30, 2026
Conference Dates: May 7-9, 2026
