JALTCALL is part of the Japan Association for Language Teaching (JALT). We hold a major annual CALL conference in Japan (usually in June), plus workshops and forums at various other times through the year. We also publish referred research articles through our Scopus Q1 ranked publication JALT CALL Journal, as well as work-in-progress research and a wider variety of articles in our new publication, JALT CALL Trends. Membership in JALT or JALTCALL is not required for attending our events or submitting to our publications, however we encourage interested participants to consider membership.
