The Department of ROMANCE LANGUAGES at the University of Oregon cordially invites abstract submissions to the third Symposium on Spanish as a Heritage Language to be held on February 18-20, 2016. Abstracts will be selected for 20-minute presentations (with 10 minutes for discussion) as well as for poster presentations.

The organizers hope to receive abstracts (in Spanish or English) from researchers, teachers, and students representing all viewpoints and subfields of study to share, discuss, and explore both theoretical and practical knowledge in any area of Spanish Heritage Bilingual Development.

Concurrent with the conference on Saturday, there will be two workshop sessions that aim to provide participants with ideas, resources, strategies, and practical advice for (i) teaching Spanish language courses where both heritage learners and foreign language learners are enrolled, as well as for (ii) the creation and/or improvement of quality language programs that deliver the most optimal learning environment for Spanish heritage learners. There will be separate sessions focusing on K-12, and higher education.

Call deadline: December 2nd, 2015
