Title: Immersion Symposium
Body: From: "Laura Franklin" September 19-20, 2003 GEORGETOWN UNIVERSITY Intercultural Center 37th and O Street NW Washington, DC 20057 The GWATFL/NCLRC Immersion Symposium is a two-day event that will focus on foreign language immersion and content-based language instruction. Plans are in the works for a Friday evening keynote address and networking session followed by concurrent sessions on Saturday morning. Saturday afternoon will consist of a special program highlighting the work of students in immersion programs. The Friday program will be graciously hosted by the Embassy of France. Saturday's events will be hosted by the National Capital Language Resource Center at nearby Georgetown University. On Saturday, September 20, 2003, the Greater Washington Association of Teachers of Foreign Languages (GWATFL) will host a number of target-language sessions designed to appeal to faculty involved with AP classes, IB programs, advanced language courses, as well as college and university-level programs. GWATFL seeks sessions, in the target language, that emphasize content rather than methodology, giving participants an immersion experience that will broaden their perspective and enhance their teaching at the same time. Some sample ideas include the correspondence between art and literature, multi-sensory approaches to a certain writer, artist or musician, sessions that focus on cinema, content-based topics, and sessions related to heritage learners. Interactive sessions are encouraged. The reading of papers is discouraged. Sessions that will reach a wide audience, particularly those that will appeal both to secondary and higher education will be given the highest consideration. For official proposal form, please send e-mail to: laura.franklin@verizon.net Please send completed proposals, preferably by e-mail attachment or in the body of an e-mail by July 31, 2003 (deadline extended) to: Dr. Roberta Lavine, GWATFL Conference Chair at RL10@umail.umd.edu.

Title: Language Awareness
Body: From: "Elisabet Arnó i Macià" Dear all, We're happy to inform you of the forthcoming 7th International Conference of the Association for Language Awareness, which will be held in Lleida (Spain) from 19 to 21 July 2004. Keynote speakers include Dr. Leo van Lier (Monterey Institute of International Studies, USA), Dr. Amy B. M. Tsui (University of Hong Kong) and Dr. Jesus Tuson (University of Barcelona, Spain). The conference welcomes presentations relating to the exploration of the means to develop one's language awareness, and evaluation of the benefits deriving from this, whether through metalinguistic introspection and reflection, or through mediated explicit knowledge about language and conscious understanding of how languages work, of how people acquire, learn and teach languages, how they use them, and are influenced by them. Intending participants may submit a 200-word abstract to the conference organizers by 15 October 2003. You'll find more information on the conference at the following address: http://www.udl.es/dept/dal/ala2004/ All the best, Elisabet Arno English Department Technical University of Catalonia Barcelona, Spain -- Visit the ALA Conference website: http://www.udl.es/dept/dal/ala2004/index.html
