I am conducting my PhD research on how non鈥慴inary individuals who are native speakers of Russian navigate and construct their gender identities through everyday language use. Russian is a highly gendered language, and existing grammatical norms often presume a binary division between 鈥渕ale鈥� and 鈥渇emale鈥� speakers. This creates unique linguistic and social challenges for non鈥慴inary people whose identities do not fit into this binary framework.
To understand these challenges and the strategies,
Call for Papers:
For centuries, linguistics focused on written language as 鈥渢he norm鈥�, and all features of language were studied based on written and often constructed artificial examples. Spoken corpora have enabled a shift in the way we view language, e.g. from a product-based to a process-based view on grammar, from an inherently-fluent view on communication to stipulating a fluency鈥揹isfluency continuum, from a verbally-centred communication to a multimodal construction of meaning.

This 1,5-hour session explores how artificial intelligence can enhance language teaching and learning. Participants will discover practical AI tools for creating engaging lessons, providing personalized feedback, designing assessments, and supporting student practice while promoting responsible and ethical use of AI. Through hands-on activities and real classroom examples, attendees will leave with practical strategies they can immediately apply to improve language instruction and learner engage

Language learning in the primary classroom can be enhanced by using simple performance skills such as improvisation, expressive movement and voice control. Drama activities help our students contextualize language and to speak and respond appropriately. They encourage interaction, reflection and meaningful communication.
In this 50-minute online workshop session we will look at a variety of drama activities for any size of class and ability. Each activity will have a specific language outcome
