Advance Notice, Preliminary Registration and Call for Papers
InSTIL is a Special Interest Group of CALICO, EUROCALL and ISCA
and an affiliate of IALLT
InSTIL 2002 Symposium
The second bi-ennial symposium of InSTIL will take place in the beautiful
Californian city of San Diego in a university with an international
reputation in Computer Assisted Language Learning.
The theme of the Symposium
Building on the original theme of InSTIL 2000, the Symposium acknowledges
the obvious, namely that many advances in the integration of ST in CALL have
been driven by concerns outside CALL. The theme is also sufficiently broad
to cover all the areas of interest of InSTIL members, in other words speech
recognition, synthesis, analysis, manipulation, visualization, animation,
talking heads, etc.... Work related to any area of Speech Therapy which
impacts on Education and Learning is also welcome. Informal enquiries may
be made at the point of sending an abstract.
We intend the symposium to be an interdisciplinary meeting point for
researchers and practitioners. Contributions relating to basic research,
method development, system design and evaluation are welcome.
Format of the event
This will be a full symposium open to presenters or simply members of the
CALL or Speech Community not yet actively involved in the field. As in
Dundee, we will run one day Training Seminars in parrallel. Each thematic
session will be introduced by a tutorial presentation by an invited expert.
All papers will be presented in plenary sessions with time for demonstration
and discussion. Other contributions will be presented in poster sessions
followed by a plenary discussion.
A small exhibition is planned both for commercial systems and research
prototypes.
The Symposium will also see the first presentation on American soil of the
poster exhibition entitled "An Illustrated History of Speech Technology in
Language Learning".
Proceedings
The Symposium Contributions and, where possible Courseware Demos, will be
published in a CD-ROM which will be available to participants at the time of
the Symposium. Subsequently, revised contributions will be published in an
edited volume or in the InSTIL Journal.
The Venue
InSTIL 2000 will happen at San Diego State University.
