The types of contributions in the Symposium are plenary lectures, select

Proposals for short papers and posters are open to any researcher

1. The Interface Issue in SLA (either the strong-, weak- and
   no-interface stands) and its implications for ELT.
2. Cognitive perspectives on SLA –psycholinguistic and/or
   neurolinguistic- and their applications to ELT.
3. Defining features of explicit and implicit instruction in ELT from a
   cognitive perspective.
4. Managing explicit and implicit instruction in ELT from a cognitive
   perspective.
5. Adjusting the explicit and implicit load of current ELT materials.
6. Explicit and implicit instruction in ELT methods.

Applications are particularly welcome in the field of ELT, but proposals
