BACKGROUND

The English in Southeast Asia conference series is the result of collaboration among  member universities from seven countries: Malaysia, Singapore, Brunei, Philippines, Australia, Hong Kong and Indonesia. Since 1996 the conference has been held annually and has been hosted in rotation by a member university in different countries. For the first time the conference will take place in Indonesia, hosted by Sanata Dharma University and organized by the Graduate Program of English Language Studies, the Undergraduate Program of English Letters, the Undergraduate Program of English Education, English Extension Course and the Language Centre.

 AIMS

English is  a world language with varieties different from those spoken in countries where English is a native language. Accordingly, English has also acquired specific statuses and roles in different disciplines, geographic locations and social spheres. To be fully functional, learners of English must be familiar with their respective specific and  local variety without abandoning the general and  global nature of English. The learning and teaching of English require the identification of the relevant statuses, roles and  varieties as well as their environments or, more specifically, the texts and the contexts. This 9th ESEA conference will focus on issues of English statuses, roles, varieties and instructional materials as well as the contexts of the teaching and learning of English in Southeast Asia in particular and the Asia-Pacific region in general.

 SUB-THEMES

The conference will discuss a number of sub-themes which include the following:

1. English in social sciences and humanity studies

2. English in natural and physical sciences

3. English and life-skill based learning

4. English in multilingual/cultural communities

5. linguistic descriptions of English varieties

6. English in informational technology

7. corpus-based research on varieties of English

8. instructional implications of varieties of English

9. professional development for the teachers of English

      

PLENARY SPEAKERS

The conference will invite academic dignitaries as plenary speakers, who will be announced soon after confirmation is received.
