DKU is happy to invite you to join the conference Learning Languages in the Digitalized Environment which will be held online on May 27, 2021.
This conference aims to bring together local and international experts, researchers and practitioners to discuss current trends in learning and teaching languages amidst the Covid-19 pandemic and its aftermath. Underlying the conference is the idea that, however disruptive the present situation may seem, we, language professionals, will take every opportunity to network, grow, and boost research.

The main themes of the conference include and are not limited to:
-
Theories and practices used for language learning in a digitalized environment;
-
Exploring contemporary roles for teachers and students;
-
Digital transformations in teaching and learning languages within the pandemic and beyond;

Technologies in a flipped classroom;
-
Language transformation trends in the 21st century;
The language of the conference is English.
