We are pleased to announce that the Call for Papers for the ALANZ SYMPOSIUM 2018 is now open. We invite proposals for paper presentations, interactive sessions and posters.
The landscape of English language teaching is constantly changing and as teachers contemplate new cohorts of learners, they face this question: Is business as usual enough?
In today’s settings there are new technologies to incorporate into learning and teaching, different teaching spaces becoming available, a need to balance fostering learner autonomy with the pastoral care of students, as well as ensuring that our teaching is relevant to the world our students face.
We would like to adopt a collegial approach to this question and so invite abstracts from members and non-members of ALANZ and in particular from new and emerging researchers.
Presentation types:
* Oral Presentations: These will be allocated 20 minutes and 5 minutes for questions (25 minutes total) usually supported with visual aids.
* Interactive sessions: These could be workshops or informal discussions around points of interest in Applied Linguistics (45 minutes) and could be supported by visual aids or activities.
* Posters: Often some research projects can be best presented in a visual manner in the form of a poster.
Abstracts (250 words max.) can be submitted to one of two committee members: * Anthea Fester email: Anthea.Fester@wintec.ac.nz or * Celine Kearney email: Celine.Kearney@wintec.ac.nz
Deadline for abstract submission: 7th September 2018
Notification of acceptance: 28th September 2018
