Title: Call for Papers: 7th Annual International Conference of the European Association of Languages for Specific Purposes (AELFE)
Body: 7th Annual International Conference of the European Association of Languages for Specific Purposes (AELFE) Researching and Teaching Specialized Languages: New Contexts, New Challenges Hotel Galúa. La Manga, Murcia, Spain 18-20 September 2008 As suggested in the title of this conference, we particularly welcome papers which attempt to gain insight into the current challenges in didactics and theoretical-practical research in modern languages applied to academic and specific purposes. We consider that a new research and didactic scene is being shaped by such factors as the expansion of new technologies, the heyday of distance learning and the university reform derived from the implementation of the European Space for Higher Education. Undeniably, all this deserves our uttermost attention, although any other topic that may lead us to reflect on our teaching, experimental and research practice would also be accepted. Key dates 1 March 2008: Submission deadline for the presentation of paper proposals. Abstract of 500 words. 15 May 2008: Submission deadline for the final version of the paper conforming to publication guidelines. 10 June 2008: Deadline for reduced registration payment. For further information, please visit http://www.um.es/aelfe2008 . Download the call for papers from http://www.um.es/aelfe2008/docs/fcp/AELFE%2008%201%20FCP%20EN.pdf .
