Eighth Bonn Applied English Linguistics Conference (BAELc8)

The Eighth Annual Bonn Applied English Linguistics Conference took place on June 28-29, 2019 with a special focus on language assessment.

The conference was held at the Department of English, American, and Celtic Studies (IAAK), University of Bonn, Regina-Pacis-Weg 5, 53113 Bonn.

We were very pleased to have Professor Carsten Roever (Melbourne) as our keynote speaker this year, with a talk titled, "Assessment of second language pragmatics: past, present and future". 

In addition, a special discussion panel titled, "Bringing pragmatics into the classroom: Prospects for language teaching and testing" with teachers Marja Meinl, Timo Brede, and Anne Nickel took place on Friday afternoon.

Thank you to all who attended BAELc8: we look forward to seeing you again next year at BAELc9!
