The Yamada Language Center and the Center for Applied Second Language Studies at the University of Oregon have been delighted to co-host the International Association for Language Learning Technology's 2019 conference here in Eugene, June 19-22. CASLS staff presented two workshops and five presentations and sent participants on a mixed reality conference quest: Saving Eugene from McTavish.

YLC director Jeff Magoto says, "It's been more than a delight because ... it's not just great guests and scholars from around the world, but it's about fifteen of the people who I've had the pleasure of teaching in the past, and they've all come back, and that gives me a greater sense of gratitude than anything. We have a great teaching language teaching community here at the University of Oregon, [and] this conference has been a reminder that we do a lot of good things." 

CASLS director Julie Sykes adds, “It is always a pleasure to collaborate with Jeff Magoto and the Yamada Center. IALLT 2019 was no exception. A special thanks to Jeff and the IALLT Board for a great conference.”

We have had a great time with you all here in Eugene!
