Brno International Language Symposium
The 2017 Papers
This anthology contains the eleven papers submitted by presenters of workshops and one of the nine plenary speakers. Four of the authors come from England, two from the Czech Republic, and one from each of Poland, Ireland, Scotland, USA and Australia.
|
As these papers show, important incremental steps are being taken in the application of new findings in linguistics, language teaching, teacher training, the use of ICT and examining. The authors are practitioners who are piloting and implementing new approaches and procedures which they share in this book, helping broaden the educational reach of this first Brno conference.
