ELTWeekly Vol. 5 Issue#14 | April 22, 2013 | ISSN 0975-3036
The International Academic Forum in conjunction with its global partners is proud to announce the Inaugural European Conference on Technology in the Classroom, to be held from July 11-14 2013, at the Thistle Hotel, Brighton, England.
CONFERENCE THEME: “The Impact of Innovation: Technology and You”
Technology is all around us. Long gone are the days when we could just walk into a classroom with a handful of papers and a piece of chalk. Even if we are in an environment that is lacking resources, our students with mobile phones, internet café, and social networking, are exposed to technology daily. And new uses of technology are being introduced daily. These new uses show how innovation and creativity go hand-in-hand. We invite language educators, administrators, policy makers, and others to join us at ECTC 2013 as we examine technology’s impact upon our classrooms, share what innovations we are currently implementing, and look to the future imagining the role technology will play in education.

ELTWeekly Vol. 5 Issue#14 | April 22, 2013 | ISSN 0975-3036
The organizing committee of FAB4 invites interested teachers/researchers to submit presentation proposals for the FAB4 Conference, which will be held on July 6-7, 2013 at Nanzan University, Nagoya.

We are asking teachers/researchers to connect at least two out of the three (Neuroscience, Psychology, and ELT) areas and choose the best format for their presentation. Formats are: Poster session, Pecha Kucha sessions, research-focused presentations (20 min.), and workshop-style presentations (50 min.). Featured Speakers include Marc Helgesen and Robert S. Murphy.
