| Title | Call for Papers: Human and Material Resources in Foreign Language Learning |
| Body | From http://linguistlist.org/issues/18/18-155.html II International Conference on HUMAN AND MATERIAL RESOURCES IN FOREIGN LANGUAGE LEARNING 12-13 July 2007 Universidad Católica San Antonio, Murcia (Spain) With the language learner at the very centre, human and material resources are two key elements that make up the language learning process. Regarding material resources, nowadays new technologies can be said to play a leading role in most language learning environments. However, we cannot forget that these relatively new tools still coexist with more traditional ones which are still widely used in the foreign language classroom. On the other hand, the progressive emergence of new ‘human roles’ in language learning means that human resources have also become a key medium through which the learner accesses knowledge and practice towards language acquisition. Within this context, there is an obvious need to carry out research on these resources in order to assess their potential for an optimum learning experience. We welcome paper proposals in relation to the roles that any of the following can play in the language learning process: 1. Human resources § Native speakers § Tandem learning § Language advisors § Language teachers § Peer learners 2. Traditional resources § Paper-based: grammar books, textbooks, printed media… § Audiovisual: video, cassette, DVD 3. Computer-based resources § Software § Internet § Electronic communication tools: forum, chat, e-mail These topics are only intended as an illustrative guide, but all paper proposals are assumed to represent original and unpublished work. Deadline for submissions is 18 April 2007. For more information about submission guidelines, go to http://www.ucam.edu/unidcentral/idiomas/Events/004/papers1.htm . |
