I’d like to draw your attention to an upcoming conference on the interface between teaching and linguistics hosted by the Institute of Pedagogy of the University of Gdańsk: https://www.educationalroleoflanguage.ug.edu.pl/communiqué. The deadline’s already expired, and many of you will probably be too busy to go anyway, but it’s nice to see that others are working on bridging the research gap in foreign languge teaching as well. Let’s hope there’ll be proceedings for us to read afterwards. 🙂

And let me encourage your to consider becoming conference-goers a bit later on in your careers. It never hurts to spend some time with international colleagues and see how things are done elsewhere.
