SPECIAL ISSUE EDITORS

Prof. Dr. Paul Seedhouse
Olcay Sert

Novitas-ROYAL is an open access, international, and fully refereed journal devoted to research and critical discussion on all aspects of language, linguistics and learning/teaching of languages. Having published scholarly work from a wide array of research contexts including Australia, Europe, Eurasia, and the Middle East since 2007, Novitas-ROYAL has been indexed in prestigious abstracting and indexing agencies including MLA International Bibliography, CSA Linguistics and Language Behaviour Abstracts, Linguistics Abstracts (Wiley-Blackwell), EBSCO and TUBITAK-ULAKBIM. The journal plans to publish a special issue on Conversation Analytic Research in Educational and Applied Linguistics in April 2011. The aim is to contribute to the acknowledgement of the recent contributions of Conversation Analysis to the areas like Applied Linguistics, SLA, and Language Teacher Education and to publish innovative and theoretically sound articles to create an awareness of the ways Conversation Analysis can change research directions in various contexts. Articles should either a) contain an analysis of spoken data or b) present an application of CA to an area of Applied Linguistics or c) review the contribution of CA to an area of Applied Linguistics.

Possible topics include, but are not limited to:

Teaching and Learning of Second/Foreign/Additional Languages
Second Language Acquisition (CA-for-SLA)
Language Teacher Education
Curriculum Design
Materials Design and Development
Classroom Discourse
English as a Lingua Franca (ELF) Discourse
