Inaugural International Conference on Language Teaching and Learning 2021
Following the success of the 2019 Inaugural International Conference on Language Teaching and Learning, the Department of English Language Education held “The 2nd International Conference on Language Teaching and Learning” from 19 to 20 June 2021 online. The theme this year was “language-in-education policy and practice in the digital era”, aiming to explore how technology impacted policy, curriculum, and pedagogy in language education and how it would impact the future of language policy and practice and our society. The conference featured prominent leading scholars in the fields, including Professor Judith Green (University of California, Santa Barbara, USA), Professor Angel Lin (Simon Fraser University, Canada), Professor Li Wei (University College London, UK), Professor Ernesto Macaro (University of Oxford, UK) and Professor Hayo Reinders (Anaheim University, USA). Lively discussions then continued across five parallel sessions and 90 paper presentations contributed by 102 researchers and teachers from Asia, Australia, Europe and North America.
