• Using CALL to encourage communication between learners at the local level
• Using CALL to encourage communication between learners globally
• Collaborative CALL research projects
• Collaborative CALL learning projects
• Local-scale CALL projects with international objectives

Submissions that do not deal directly with the conference theme are also most welcome, provided they demonstrate a sufficient level of innovation, quality of research, or suggestions for improvement of the field.
