This
international conference on Knowledge-Innovation-Excellence: Synergy
in Language Research and Practice highlights fresh interdisciplinary enquiry
and explorations in language research and practice.
The
conference aims to be a platform for interaction, exploration, examination, and
comprehension of issues related to innovative knowledge on the relationship between
people and language. It will be a gathering of experts, practitioners,
researchers, writers and graduate students engaged in research in linguistics,
literature, applied linguistics, languages and language education.
The exploration of the old, the new and the
uncharted in the synergy between language research and practice is an on-going
endeavour in this new world where borders between the physical and virtual are seamless
and fluid. Moreover, events and conflicts around the world shape the ways in
which we perceive, conceptualise and realise new forays into research,
innovation and community engagements. The complex environment of traditional as
well as virtual academia and the rigours of research have led to discoveries,
contestations, and experience in the linguistic world. The expertise generated
as a result of these research activities within language practice needs to be continuously
shared through academic interactions and publications. Hence, this conference
sets out to bring together language researchers and practitioners in a bid to
seek knowledge, innovation and excellence.
