International Consortium of Academic Language and Learning Developers – 2024 ICALLD Symposium – 23-24 April

We are delighted to announce our 8th international Symposium over Time! Over two days, rolling around the clock, participants from the member associations will take turns in presenting some of their current work. The presentations are arranged to allow members of every association to listen to all presentations from other time zones without staying up through the night, so we hope members will welcome the opportunity to be inspired by colleagues across the globe.

The papers align with one or more of the following themes:

• Ways of knowing: which knowledge is valued and how do we value it? Who gets to decide? How do we ensure we draw on an array of perspectives from across the university community?
• Transformative learning spaces: how do we ensure inclusivity in the spaces in which we teach and support learning? What can transformation mean in our context? Are there degrees of transformation, and how can we ensure that its potential reaches all our students?
• Building effective connections: how do we create a sense of community with students, both in classrooms and online? What are the foundations of effective collaborations between colleagues, whether that is other learning advisors or academics, or others? What have connections enabled that we would not have achieved alone?
