spero che questo messaggio trovi bene tutte e tutti voi.

Inoltriamo questa email del CercleS, che voi avete già ricevuto, come promemoria sulle prossime attività primaverili. In modo particolare, segnalo il 2° Webinar dedicato a Language Learning in Higher Education, che proponiamo nuovamente dopo il successo avuto nel 1° Webinar organizzato ad Aprile 2021. Ricordo che l’evento, attraverso 4 brevi interviste con 4 autori appartenenti a diverse aree geografiche e contesti culturali, si focalizzerà su rilevanti tematiche trattate nella rivista del CercleS. In questa occasione, ospiteremo anche Katarzina Grzegorek, managing editor presso De Gruyter Mouton. Sono certa che sarà un’opportunità per ritrovarci, il 4 maggio 2022 (16.00-18.00), sebbene a distanza.

Vi invito, inoltre, a visitare con frequenza il sito del CercleS, oltre a quello dell’AICLU, poiché il sito è in continuo aggiornamento in virtù dei tanti eventi che si svolgono in molte università europee. In modo particolare, troverete informazioni sulla Conferenza CercleS 2022, che si terrà a Porto (PT) dal 15 al 17 settembre.

Presto, da AICLU, vi contatteremo per altre iniziative che si svolgeranno a breve scadenza.

Un cordiale saluto,

Dear friends, dear colleagues,

We will send a message once or twice per month with the most important information to take note of.
In addition, we invite you to visit our website for the latest news and calls for papers – it is updated regularly. The forum is also available to members to post information, requests, and available jobs.

Aspire to Inspire
We would like to remind you of the new edition of this CercleS training programme in management and leadership that will be offered from 7 October 2022.

Leadership meetup: 26 April @ 17:00-18:00
(Specifically for Language Centre managers)
This Leadership meetup is dedicated to an exchange on Language Centres’ support offered to Ukrainian refugee students and staff and/or to refugees of the community.

LLHE webinar: 4 May
Based on a very successful webinar in 2021, we are again hosting a special webinar on 4 May 2022 from 16:00-18:00 CET dedicated to our journal, Language Learning in Higher Education, during which we will have short interviews with some of the authors whose articles appear in Issue 11.1 (2021). The authors are from Ireland, Great Britain, the Philippines, Germany and France, and the article topics range from the autonomy of language centres and university internationalisation to English for Academic Purposes and oral academic presentations of international students. The full programme is available here.

We are also thrilled to be joined by the managing editor of Mouton De Gruyter, who will share some thoughts about the mission and tasks in the field of Linguistics.

The webinar will be via Zoom, and the link will be sent to website subscribers the week before the webinar. Free access to the journal is possible via the member area.
