Call for Papers: Special Issue of SEEJ

[Benjamin Rifkin]

Dear SEELANGers:

A special issue of SEEJ on the teaching and learning of Slavic Languages and
Cultures is being planned, guest edited by Olga E. Kagan and Benjamin
Rifkin.  

In 1997 we invited submissions for a volume The Teaching and Learning of
Slavic Languages and Cultures (eds. Kagan and Rifkin, with Bauchus).  The
volume was published by Slavica in 2000 and received an award from AATSEEL
in 2001.  The purpose of this special issue for SEEJ is to see what changes
have occurred in the field since then.  The editors welcome submissions on
curricular innovations and assessment, use of technologies, task-based and
content-based teaching, issues encountered in teaching at the advanced level
and with heritage speakers, and analyses of empirical data on the learning
and teaching of any Slavic language.  Submissions on any other topics
related to the learning and teaching of Slavic languages and cultures are
welcome. 

The papers must present original research and must not have been published
elsewhere previously or be under consideration for publication elsewhere
when submitted to SEEJ.  Those submitting abstracts and papers must be
members of AATSEEL.

Please submit an abstract (250 words) by e-mail to Benjamin Rifkin by e-mail
attachment (.doc, .rtf, .txt, or .pdf) at brifkin at temple.edu by April 1,
2008.  SEEJ is a peer-refereed journal.  Submissions must be in English.
(The deadline for the submission of full papers will be September 1, 2008.)

If you have questions, please feel free to contact me or Olga Kagan
(okagan at ucla.edu).

Sincerely,

Ben Rifkin
Professor of Russian
Temple University
