Meeting Description:

The Research Group The English Language in University Settings of the
College of Languages, Literatures and Linguistics at the University of
Seville, is pleased to announce the Ninth ELIA Conference, to be held in
Seville, Spain, on March 15-16, 2005. The main theme of the conference will
be Motivations, Attitudes & Anxieties in Foreign/Second Language
Acquisition, Teaching, and Use. Renowned national and international
scholars in the broad domain of applied linguistics have taken part in the
eight previous ELIA conferences and have made a significant contribution to
ELIA's success. The keynote speakers for this year's conference include Dr.
Zoltán Dörnyei (University of Nottingham, UK), Dr. Tim Murphy (Dokkyo
University, Japan) and Dr. Jane Arnold (University of Seville, Spain). In
accordance with the main theme of this year's conference, proposals related
to any dimension of L2 motivations, attitudes and anxieties will be given
preference. Proposals based on other applied linguistics topics central to
ELIA, that is, the teaching, learning/acquisition and discursive uses of
English, either independently or in contact with some other language, will
also be considered. Proposals related to the above mentioned theme and/or
fields that deal with Spanish as a target language are also welcome.
