6th RICELT Biannual Conference

MOVING FORWARD: FOSTERING A DIVERSE, DECENTRED AND MULTICULTURAL ELT CLASSROOM

In times of change and reinvention, communities are developing collective meanings, ideas, and practices. Such social representations, cognitions, or thinking are always related to the social and cultural tensions in our society. With this in mind, we invite the Chilean ELT community (pre and in-service teachers of English as well as academics) to share their ELT research-based representations, thinking, and voices and be part of our biannual collective discussions.

OBJECTIVES:

• Join the discussion on issues raised by the current research in ELT in Chile
• Become acquainted with the latest research in the Chilean ELT context
• Determine areas that need to be explored/researched in the Chilean ELT context
• Generate virtual networking opportunities and partnerships to enhance current and future research.
