*The theme of CILC4 2018 is Educational Enskillment, Event, and Ecology.* These
intersecting ideas converge on how processual events sustain human and
community becoming. In addition to addressing these issues, we welcome
papers that discuss how Eastern and Western assumptions about knowledge and
becoming can be linked, and how such links may be fruitfully exploited in
theory and practice. Thus, in Chinese philosophy there is a reciprocal
metaphor that connects the cosmos and the body through Qi, an energetic
flow that operates on different scales. In the West, proponents of 4E
cognition (Embodied, Embedded, Extended, Enactive) are increasingly
preoccupied with ideas that share similar assumptions. We propose to
explore Qi in both its holistic macro and micro potentials and ask how
concepts like ecosystems, events, and Qi, contribute to our understanding
of languaging, thinking, and feeling.

We encourage submissions on how these ideas inform educational practices
(e.g., project-based, place-based language learning or instruction) and
wider investigations of how humans can re-establish harmony with their
ecology. We welcome participation from psychology, philosophy, cognitive
archaeology, semiotics, applied and general linguistics, translation,
literature, communication, business, education and related fields.

*Papers can be submitted either as an oral or electronic poster
presentation. Abstracts (maximum 300 words) submission will be open soon
and should be submitted by 19 February 2018 (extended deadline). Speakers
will be notified by 1 March 2018. Proposals are also invited for thematic
workshops/ panels/ symposia. Primary language of submission is English.*
