Dear members and colleagues,
As Coordinator of the New Technologies Panel, I would like to invite you to submit proposals for the next AEDEAN Conference to be held at the University Autonoma of Barcelona. 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,
Pascual Cantos Gómez
