60th Annual Conference of the International Linguistic Association Call for Papers
2014/12/29
Teachers College, Columbia University, April 24-26, 2015
Theme: Linguistics and Education—Honoring Franklin E. Horowitz
On the occasion of the 60th Annual Conference of the International Linguistic Association, we pay special tribute to Franklin Horowitz, who has been an active and dedicated member of the ILA from its earliest years, joined the Executive Board in 1989, and served as its president from 1999 to 2002. A professor of linguistics at Teachers College, Columbia University for over 35 years, Frank’s enthusiasm for language inspired legions of graduate students, who continue the work of teaching linguistics to their own students around the world. His influence has been enormous, both as a leader of the ILA and as a teacher. Thus, this year’s theme reflects the mark he has left on those who have worked with and learned from him: We invite papers related to the various subfields of linguistics as they are applied to education.
The influence of linguistics on education is wide-ranging. It encompasses applications to language teaching, including the teaching of second and foreign languages; the education of emergent bilinguals and speakers of various dialects; educating for language awareness, linguistic diversity, and equity; research on language and the Internet; language planning and policy studies; the critique of political and media discourse; and the revitalization of indigenous and endangered languages. The ILA invites submissions that explore these and other connections between linguistics and education.
Topics that might be addressed under this theme:
- Methods for teaching linguistic structures
- Second and foreign language instruction
- Dialects, diversity, and language awareness
- Bi/multilingualism and education
- Indigenous education and language revitalization
- Classroom discourse
- Linguistics in teacher education
- Literacy and writing systems
- Digital literacies
- Language planning and policy
- Language, power, and ideology
In keeping with the ILA tradition, we also welcome proposals that treat other areas of linguistics.
