2019 Call for Stream Papers


Call for Stream Papers: AATSEEL annual conference New Orleans, February 7-10, 2019

The AATSEEL Call for Papers is now available.

In addition to regular conference panels and events, the program will now include panel streams. These streams will promote greater cohesion among conference panels and foster a broader dialogue throughout the conference. The result can be a series of mini-conferences within the framework of our larger conference. There will be two stream sessions (“A” and “B”). The panels in each session will meet simultaneously, so members may apply for no more than one “A” stream and one “B” stream. All conference attendees are welcome to attend stream panels, but participants in a stream are expected to attend all of the panels in their stream.

The stream topics for 2019 are:

Friday Streams

1A: Acquisition of Vocabulary at the Intermediate/1 to Advanced/2 Levels of Proficiency

2A: Issues in teaching lower-level language courses: strategies and practices

3A: Moscow Conceptualism

4A: Corpora Based and Corpora Driven Research and Language Instruction

5A: Platonov

6A: AWSS Sponsored Stream: Gender and Sexuality within Slavic Studies
