| Writing/reading interface |
| 10-12 November 2023 |
| Temple University Rome, Rome, Italy |
|
| First call for papers |
|
| Extending the Association of Written Language and Literacy's (AWLL) tradition of international conferences devoted to writing systems, AWLL14 will convene to facilitate researchers from various backgrounds in exploring together their shared interests in understanding how the complex interface between writing and reading plays out across the diversity of writing systems. In that spirit, this call invites abstract submissions that address relevant research questions, including (but not limited to) the following: |
|
| ○ What are the roles of phonological awareness and morphological awareness in both learning to write (encode) and read (decode) in different writing systems? |
| ○ To what extent can cross-linguistic studies help differentiate between universal and language-specific aspects of visual word recognition and processing? |
| ○ What historical conventions, sociolinguistic practices or technological aspects shape the writing/reading interface at different levels of written language? |
| ○ How can awareness of the interface between writing and reading benefit the teaching of both reading and writing? |
| ○ How do the developmental processes of written text production and comprehension influence each other? |
| ○ How will novel AI technologies influence the writing/reading interface? |
|
| The 3-day program will feature three keynote talks, a series of oral and poster sessions, AWLL's business meeting and conclude with a panel discussion. |
