General Information
This
symposium, in similar fashion to Bilinglatam I which took place
in Buenos Aires, Argentina in 2004, aims at promoting an exchange
of knowledge in the fields of research and teaching on bilingualism
and bilingual education among those who work in majority and minority
language contexts in Latin America.
The
Organising Committee invites proposals for presentations on any
aspect of bilingualism in a Latin American context, or in other
educational or research contexts which have a direct relationship
with Latin America.
The
three central themes of the Second Symposium are:
• Models, programmes and pedagogical practices in bilingual
education.
• Linguistic and educational policies for bilingual or multilingual
education.
• Teacher education and professional development in bilingual
contexts.
There
will be three modalities of presentation:
• Key note sessions (with invited key note speakers)
• Oral papers (Maximum time, 30 minutes)
• Poster sessions
• Round tables with invited participants
Spanish is the official language
of the Symposium however, simultaneous translation will be offered
for the keynote sessions.
