Welcome to Tomorrow: 
Forging the Future of Language Education


March 2nd and 3rd at the University of Texas at Austin

This year’s conference focuses on how language classrooms of the future may appear. Language classrooms are rapidly changing with the adoption of new technologies, increased globalization, budgetary constraints, and new research findings with regard to learner factors and identity issues. It is time for language educators and researchers to gather and discuss how these new developments present opportunities and challenges for language education.

About TexFLEC: The Texas Foreign Language Education Conference (TexFLEC) is now 11 years old, having been held every year since 2000! TexFLEC aims to bring together researchers and educators in the fields of foreign language education, TEFL/TESL (Teaching English as a Foreign Language or Second Language), linguistics, and applied linguistics. Its main aim is to encourage professionalism and research starting at the grass roots. As such, graduate students are encouraged to begin making a contribution to their field by presenting, participating and attending the conference. 

TexFLEC is supported in part by the Foreign Language Education Student Association at the University of Texas at Austin with additional support from the Foreign Language Education Program.
