THE FIRST INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON LANGUAGE AND LANGUAGE TEACHING (ICLLT-1)
Promoting Professionalism in ELT
Padang, October 16 – 17, 2009
Rationale
As a world-wide language, the great need for the teaching-learning of English as an L2 and/or an FL has been increasing significantly. However, the teaching-learning process of English as an FL in Indonesia has not been fairly successful yet. Natural, cultural, psychological, theoretical, and practical problems are still in crucial issues which need to be discussed seriously. In order to have significant success in the teaching-learning of English, professionalism in English Language Teaching (ELT) should be stimulated and promoted by means of various ways. Having conference on ELT is one way which can be held to obtain the intended professionalism.
Being inspired by the experiences in organizing and holding national and international seminars so far, the English Department of Faculty of Language Literature and Art, the State University of Padang would like to organize the scientific discussions and workshops into regular conferences which are labeled as Conference on Language and Language Teaching (CLLT). It is planned that CLLT is held annually in the level of national and international one with various focuses. In accordance with the planning, this is the first international level of CLLT, and this year it is focused on the English language teaching.
