The Third International Conference On Applied Linguistics (CONAPLIN 3)

The Third Conference on Applied Linguistics
(CONAPLIN 3) takes Language learning and
quality education: the contribution of applied
linguistics to quality education as its theme.
Globalization and the greenhouse effect are two
issues now appearing in our daily discussions.
Globalization will integrate our social and
economic activities into a global system. Free
trade areas, such as AFTA, NAFTA, ACFTA,
and cross border education will benefit one
country, but will disadvantage another. The
greenhouse effect will be a serious threat to life
in this universe. It is a factor causing climate
change that will reduce food supply and increase
the number of accidents and natural disasters.
Solutions to both the problems of globalization
and global warming are quality human resources,
which are the result of quality education.

Quality education is the outcome of quality
subject teaching, including language teaching,
such as English teaching. Quality ELT will come
into being if the quality of language teaching
processes and other accompanying variables are
assured. In other words, quality language
teaching should be supported by quality
curriculum and methods, material development,
assessment, teaching and learning processes,
learning strategies, and the integration of
information and technology and cultural
awareness into the language teaching context.

Based on the description above, the conference
will aim:

1. to promote the application of linguistic studies
   in language teaching and learning


2. to promote the implementation of quality
   assurance in every aspect of English
   Language Teaching and learning.


3. to share information, ideas and best practices
   in quality language education.

relevant topic of your choice on one of the
following areas:

• Teaching and Learning Strategies
