Technology for Second Language Learning Conference
Beyond Form: Functional Perspectives on CALL Research and Teaching
Iowa State University, Memorial Union
September 12 & 13, 2014

The Applied Linguistics and Technology program at Iowa State University invites proposals for the 2014 TSLL Conference. Proposals are invited for papers and posters on current practices, challenges, and research directions that address form/function connections within CALL research and teaching. The organizers are especially interested in topics that address one or more of the following areas:

- How can a functional approach to language be exploited for the development of technological innovations in language education?
- What form/function connections can inform technology for language education?
- What are successful practices in computer-assisted teaching of disciplinary language?
- How does the language teacher use technology to help meet the practical challenges of teaching language?
- How can students in a language class use technology to obtain useful models for and feedback on their language?
- How can technology help in assessing students' language learning?
- How can the analytic approaches from functional linguistic theories help teachers use technology to understand the challenges language presents to students?
- How can work in corpus linguistics and computational linguistics help to develop appropriate tools for teaching and learning language across the disciplines?

Proposal deadline: May 23, 2014
