Meeting Description:
(Session at Building Inclusive and Multilingual Societies: Audiovisual Translation, Media and Technologies for Accessibility)
The panel invites contributions that examine universal design and the idea of accessibility in language learning. It hopes promote a lively debate on the impact of AVT, new technologies, media accessibility and consumer behavior to demonstrate their positive influence on cooperative and interdisciplinary research aimed at changing user perceptions and improving quality standards in language learning. Concurrently, it seeks to shed light on the usage of new tools and to further develop research methodologies traditionally applied to investigate language learning, media and technology, and AVT, such as linguistic and corpus-based research, with a particular focus on the positive impact of technologies in the foundation of new methods and contents.
