Theme of the JALTCALL Conference

The theme of the JALTCALL 2007 Conference is "New Frontiers in CALL: Negotiating Diversity". Presentations may include the following areas:

• The impact of new and emerging CALL technologies
• Relationships between CALL and other disciplines, languages or traditions
• Connections between CALL in presence-based, online, blended and virtual learning environments
• Discussion of the future directions/frontiers of CALL-based teaching and research
• A focus on the frontier between CALL and theories of Second Language Language Acquisition

Note that the above list is intended to be representative rather than conclusive, so different perspectives on the conference theme are encouraged. Submissions that do not deal directly with the conference theme are also most welcome, provided they demonstrate a sufficient level of innovation, quality of research, or suggestions for improvement of the field. Proposals are encouraged in either English or Japanese.
