Conference: International Conference on Child Foreign Language Acquisition

International Conference on Child Foreign Language Acquisition

This workshop focuses on child (4-12) foreign language acquisition in school contexts. Research exploring how children of that age range interact while completing communicative tasks is lacking, especially in foreign language settings. Philp, Oliver and Mackey (2008: 13) stated that there is a need for ‘rich, detailed descriptions of the many and various factors which interact to impact a given child’s L2 development'. Thus we welcome studies carried out within interactionist and/or sociocultural approaches and focused on different aspects of child foreign language development.
