Type of sessions:
Paper (40 minutes): State-of-the-art presentations, theoretical reflections, partial or final results of research and pedagogical experiences. Each presentation lasts 30 minutes, followed by 10 minutes for questions and discussion.
Workshop (60 minutes): Sessions in which presenters demonstrate and provide practical elements for language teaching and evaluation. Although the presentation of a solid theoretical background is expected, most of the session should be devoted to interaction, participation and practice. Presenters are expected to provide hand-outs to the audience.
Poster Presentation (60 minutes): A visual exhibit of theoretical reflections, methodology and research results. Attendees will circulate within the poster-session area as they interact with the poster presenters, exchanging information and feedback on their work. This category is suggested for undergraduate students. Standard poster size is 1.20 X 2.40 m.
