‘Crossing Boundaries’
4th Biennial International Conference on Task-Based Language Teaching

18-20 November 2011

Under the auspices of the International TBLT Consortium and the Department of Applied Language Studies and Linguistics, University of Auckland


International task-based language teaching conferences aim to bring together researchers and educators with interests in language tasks and task-based teaching from around the world. TBLT conferences, held biennially, have been hosted by Katolieke Universiteit Leuven (2005), University of Hawai’i (2007), and Lancaster University (2009).

The 2011 conference will be the first international TBLT conference to be held in the southern hemisphere. The theme of the conference, “Crossing Boundaries” encourages us to explore different perspectives on tasks and language learning and make connections between theory and practice, teaching and research.
