16th Biennial Association for Academic Language and Learning Conference 2023 – Online Call for Papers, Workshops & Panels
The CFP deadline has been extended to 11:59pm (ACST) Thursday, 15th June.
This conference we invite you to reflect on how our ALL practice and our work with students has evolved.
As part of this, we will consider: who are our students and how do we engage with them as partners; the benefits, challenges, and nuances of a range of ALL models; what’s different about the work we do in this third ALL space; how we can promote student wellbeing and inclusivity; and, how do we privilege the student voice and identify what it is that they need from us?
Therefore, we encourage enabling education academics, English language teachers, curriculum specialists, Indigenous education practitioners and students, who are all consumers of ALL practices, to consider sharing their experiences at the AALL 2023 conference, to be held virtually and hosted by Flinders University from November 22-24, 2023.
We seek proposals for 60-minute interactive workshops that provide opportunities for participants to explore innovations in practice, related to one of the four conference themes.
Please include:
Email proposals to admin@aall.org.au.

Student Voices
This theme aims to privilege the student voice. Students are at the centre of what we do, so how can we best serve them? We invite papers on the following:
The third space: ALL models in practice
ALL practitioners exist in a third space—outside of disciplines, yet inevitably also situated within them in our interactions with students. Finding ways of working effectively within this space and adapting to changes in the higher education environment more broadly is a key aspect of our roles. We invite papers that explore the following topics:
This theme interrogates what ‘students-as-partners’ really means for teaching practice in higher education, and how it can authentically and effectively be implemented in the ALL space. We invite papers that explore the following topics:
Student Wellbeing and ALL
This theme questions the intersection of student wellbeing with our ALL practice. We encourage papers that consider the following:
We especially encourage students to submit proposals for any of the above themes—we want to hear from you! Please circulate this CFP among your networks and with anyone you think may be interested in presenting.
Please email an abstract of no more than 250 words, along with a 50-word bio, to admin@aall.org.au.
