Second Language Research Forum: Exploring SLA: Perspectives, Positions, and Practices conference program

Abstract

Through this year's theme, we investigate various professional interests and practices of the field of Second Language Acquisition. The overall purpose of SLRF 2008 is to integrate an array of ideas about SLA research, ethics, and practice, from across multiple approaches. We solicit papers, posters, and colloquia that consider SLA from a range of theoretical, methodological, linguistic, practical, political, historical, and disciplinary perspectives, and encourage submissions that deepen and broaden our understandings and inform the quality and application of SLA research. The conference will be held at the Hawaii Imin International Conference Center (a.k.a. Jefferson Hall) on the east side of the University of Hawaii at Manoa campus.
