Subject: #9024 Call for Papers Sixth International Conference

Dear IALLT Members:
We are currently planning a technology strand for this conference and
welcome your proposals for helping new teachers or inservice teachers
learn how to implement effective language instruction aided by
technology. I also would like to hear your suggestions on setting up a
technology room at the conference. What tools would you include in such
a room that would be of most interest to language teacher educators?
This conference is for BOTH ESL/EFL teachers AND World Language teachers.
-Jill Robbins
