Dear members and colleagues,
As Coordinator of the New TechnologiesPanel, I would like to invite you to submit proposals for the next AEDEAN Conference to be held in Almería. Your contributions should deal with new technologies in a very broad sense: multimedia or computer-based programmes, their application in the various fields of English Studies / Philology (for teaching or research), theoretical considerations, etc. The following is a –non-exhaustive– list of possible topics:

• Creation, annotation and exploitation of linguistic corpora.
• Natural language processing.
• Automatic information retrieval.
• Computer-assisted translation.
• Computational lexicography.
• Voice synthesis and recognition.
• Creation, exploitation and assessment of multimedia teaching materials.
• E-learning and virtual platforms / applications.
• The Internet as a linguistic or teaching tool.
• Automatic grammatical analysis of text (morphological, syntactical, semantic…)
• Natural languages and programming languages.
• The impact of new technologies in the teaching and learning of language, literature, culture, methodology…

I would also like to remind that contributions may be sent in a variety of formats for different types of sessions: papers, round tables, workshops, software demonstrations... Kindly share this invitation among your colleagues, doctoral students and research assistants. I very much look forward to receiving your proposals.
Kindest regards, Alejandro Alcaraz Sintes
