IAFOR Executive Council Member

Dear Delegates,

Over the next three days, scholars and practitioners in the field of Education are invited to shareand discuss research around the conference theme of Education and Social Justice: Democratising
Education, and in the fields of Technology in the Classroom, and Language Learning, to discuss theconference theme of Convergence and Divergence.
The programme will be stimulating and challenging, with papers that address the conference
themes in different but complementary ways, including through studies drawing on empiricalresearch, those that develop theoretical and conceptual insights, and those that engage withthe experiential. The conference will be enhanced through its wide variety of presenters, whowill draw on their diverse experiences and knowledges and on their academic, personal andgeographical contexts.
I would like to thank our university partners from across the world, that help to promote thework of IAFOR, and to announce and welcome our newest partners, the University of Hawaii at
Manoa, and Michigan State University, both in the USA.
I would like to thank the IAFOR International Directors of Programme, Professor Sue Jackson
for Education and Professor Barbara Lockee for Technology, Education and Society, as well as
Conference Co-Chairs Dr. Linda Morrice, Professor Brian Hudson and Professor Steve Cornwell,and the brilliant lineup of Keynote and Featured Speakers.
I would also like to thank the many people who acted as reviewers for the conference, and inadvance, I would also like to thank all of you for your active participation.

Letter of Welcome

Education and Social JusticeECE 2016

Conference Theme

IAFOR promotes and facilitates new multifaceted approaches to one of the core issues of our time,
namely globalization and its many forms of growth and expansion. Awareness of how it cuts acrossthe world of education, and its subsequent impact on societies, institutions and individuals, is a driving
force in educational policies and practices across the globe. IAFOR’s Conferences on Education havethese issues at their core. The conferences present those taking part with three unique dimensionsof experience, encouraging interdisciplinary discussion, facilitating heightened intercultural awarenessand promoting international exchange. In short, IAFOR’s Conferences on Education are about change,transformation and social justice. As IAFOR’s previous education conferences have shown, education
has the power to transform and change, whilst it is also continuously transformed and changed. The
theme of education for social justice continues throughout 2016 and into 2017 in the Asian, European,
Middle Eastern and North American Conferences on Education.
Globalised education systems are becoming increasingly socially, ethnically and culturally diverse.
However, education is often defined through discourses embedded in Western paradigms as
globalised education systems become increasingly determined by dominant knowledge economies.
Policies, practices and ideologies of education help define and determine ways in which social justiceis perceived and acted out. What counts as ‘education’ and as ‘knowledge’ can appear uncontestable,
but is in fact both contestable and partial. Discourses of learning and teaching regulate and normalise
gendered and classed, racialised and ethnicised understandings of what learning is and who counts as
a learner.
In many educational settings and contexts throughout the world, there remains an assumption thatteachers are the possessors of knowledge, which is to be imparted to students, and that this happensin neutral, impartial and objective ways. However, learning is about making meaning, and learners
can experience the same teaching in very different ways. Students (as well as teachers) are part ofcomplex social, cultural, political, ideological and personal circumstances, and current experiences oflearning will depend, in part, on previous ones, as well as on age, gender, social class, culture, ethnicity,
varying abilities and more.
IAFOR has 11 annual conferences on education, technology in the classroom and language learning,
exploring common themes in different ways to develop a shared research agenda that develops
interdisciplinary discussion, heightens intercultural awareness and promotes international exchange.
ECE Conference Theme: “Education and Social Justice: Democratising Education”
The conference theme for ECE2016 is “Education and Social Justice: Democratising Education”. The
organisers have encouraged submissions that approach this theme from a variety of perspectives,
however, submissions across a variety of interdisciplinary and theoretical perspectives have been
welcomed. During this conference, participants are invited to explore and question ways in which
education can transcend borders of space, identity, culture and more, and to consider the ways inwhich education can develop (or hinder) social justice.

Convergence and Divergence
ECTC/ECLL Conference Theme: “Convergence and Divergence”
Educators face continually shifting demands from all directions: students, administrators, andsociety. With some of these demands, teachers and learners may feel greater isolation andpressure. These trends may be seen in the disaggregation of the university or in frequent testingof discrete outcomes for analysis and accountability purposes. In the face of these developments,
it is more important than ever to reflect on learning as experience, and to bring theory, research,and craft to bear on creating those experiences.

Finally, we need personal and professional integration. Coming together to share best practices
in these grouped conferences is a chance to share and develop ways to better integrate ourinstitutions, teachers, and most of all the experiences of the learners in a coherent practice of
education.

Conference Theme

Dewey wrote that, “the central problem of education based on experience is to select the kindof present experiences that live fruitfully and creatively in future experiences”. So, how does
research in second language acquisition and teacher expertise tell us which experiences live
on in communication? How do learning theories direct us to view the connections between
experiences? And, how can application of technology both become normalised and create vivid
experiences?

the city has to offer.
Our City–by-the-sea has a passion for creativity, a desire to look at things differently, and afriendliness that attracts visitors from all over the world.

I wish you every success with your conference and hope you have a long and enjoyable stay.
Councillor Pete West
Mayor of the City of Brighton & Hove, UK

aspects of Second Language Acquisition andMultilingualism. He has published over 180 papers andchapters, co-edited five books and five special issues. He is

Keynote Presentation: The non-linguistic benefits of language learning
Learning a language is more than merely acquiring a tool for communication. Researchers havefound that the effect of learning languages extends beyond the purely cognitive level. They typicallyscore higher on Openmindedness, Cultural Empathy, Social Initiative (Dewaele & Stavans 2014),
on Cognitive Empathy, and on Tolerance of Ambiguity (Dewaele & Li Wei 2012, 2013). Moreover,multilinguals seem to suffer less from anxiety in all their languages (Dewaele 2013), have more funin Foreign Language classes (Dewaele & MacIntyre 2014).
I will argue that these non-linguistic benefits of language learning are illustrations of multicompetence(Dewaele 2016), in the sense that the acquisition of a new language “alters the second language
user’s mind in ways that go beyond the actual knowledge of language itself ” (Cook 2002: 7).
In short, it seems that learning a new language can make you a better person, and a better citizen:
more creative, more openminded, more empathic, more emotionally stable, more sociable, more
likely to enjoy foreign language classes, better equipped to learn new languages, more confident
and less anxious in communication.

Amy Azano
Virginia Tech, USA

Rural schools around the world face unique challenges, such as geographic isolation, poverty, andlimited resources, but rarely do we see these issues addressed on an international scale. Is it possiblethat global education has become code for urban education? Do we as educators and researchers
privilege place equitably across multiple contexts, particularly in scholarship about socially, ethnically,
and culturally diverse students? While globalized education has taken root, we must consider issuesof social justice and the ways that rural people and places remain minoritized and marginalized in
educational discourse.

Keynote Presentation: Leveraging Place and Moving Toward Glocalized Learning

ECE 2016

Dr. Amy Price Azano is an Assistant Professor of Adolescent
Literacy in the School of Education at Virginia Tech. Her
scholarship focuses on rural literacies, place-based pedagogy,
and the literacy needs of special populations. She is the coPrincipal Investigator of Promoting PLACE (Place, Literacy,
Achievement, Community, and Engagement) in Rural
Schools, a five-year, 1.9 million dollar U.S. Departmentof Education grant designed to support gifted education
programs in high-poverty rural communities. Dr. Azano’s
scholarship addresses the intersection of literacy and rurality
by investigating how place influences the experiences ofrural youth. Informed by the work of literacy theorist
Paulo Freire, she studies how a critical pedagogy of placeengages students across disciplines and to what extent
that engagement influences achievement. Dr. Azano has
several book chapters, a newly released curriculum series
with Prufrock Press, and regularly publishes in national andinternational peer-reviewed journals. She received her doctorate from the University of Virginia andtaught high school English prior to becoming a teacher educator.

Spotlight Co-Presentation: Supporting Language Learners to Speak the Language of Mathematics
Like any language, the language of mathematics has its own symbols, vocabulary, and discoursefeatures. It is becoming increasingly important to learn the language of mathematics in the 21st
century. Being aware of the complexities of the language of mathematics is a critical step indesigning instruction that can improve the opportunities to learn mathematics for all students.To
learn mathematics, one must be able to talk mathematically.
The authors draw on their experiences conducting research, leading professional development,
and authoring national language standards to discuss the relationships between language andmathematical learning. We focus on the nature and use of academic language, conventions andsyntax regarding language and mathematical symbols, the importance of everyday language, andspecial word usages and grammatical features (e.g., “of ” and “in”). We will illustrate each of these
topics with classroom examples and findings from research.
After reviewing the above key findings related to language and mathematics, we will thenexplore the role of classroom discourse in the learning of mathematics, with a particularfocus on considerations for language learners. Ways of helping students talk mathematically in
productive ways include: (1) attempting to balance mathematical precision with the need tosurface mathematical meanings; (2) when appropriate, promoting the use of native languages by
Spotlight Presentation students to support their ability to communicate mathematically; (3) modeling and encouraging

students to use everyday language to initially express complex thought processes and ideas; and17:00-17:30(4) helping students develop metalinguistic awareness, or self-reflection on the language used in
the mathematics classroom.

According to the NCES, White children are no longer the dominant population in the U.S. publicschools. In view of the devastating history of separate but unequal education in the USA, what
impact will the new statistical demographics have on 21st-century public education? Research
has shown that nonwhites are viewed as less intelligent or academically gifted than their whitecounterparts. Discipline and dropout rates are also skewed in the direction of nonwhite students,
particularly Blacks and Hispanics. In view of these factors, this research will explore what can bedone to “equalize education” how can the new dominant population be better served in schools.
The efficacy of spending money and time to lure the white population back to public education
will be explored.

1. How are nonwhites traditionally viewed? Arthur Jensen, Bell Curve (Herrnstein & Murray)
2. How are nonwhites traditionally disciplined? Suspension & expulsion statistics. School toprison pipeline.
3. What can be done to “equalize education” how can the new dominant population be better
served in schools? (Learn to speak Spanish, mandatory sensitivity training – most public school
teachers are middle-class white females).
4. Should efforts and money be spent to lure the white population back to public education inorder to preserve the “quality” of education?

Keynote Presentation: Reducing Fear, Increasing Confidence – How to Reach the Students Who
Think That Learning is an Ordeal
Some students don’t like or don’t feel very engaged with a subject they are studying. In some cases the
antipathy to the subject can result in a fear of actually being in the classroom. Student fear of a particularsubject doesn’t reflect on the ability or personality of the teacher at all but the fear potential canincrease when the subject is a foreign language, where even to say ‘I don’t know’ or ‘I don’t understand’
can be an ordeal in itself.
In terms of study, fear and confidence are in an inverse relationship with each other. The more we
can reduce fear, the more we can instil confidence. And it is my belief that there are aspects oflanguage teaching methodology which lend themselves to successful reduction of fear and increase inconfidence, techniques such as pair and group work, and the recognition that fun activities and games
are a successful way of learning.
In this talk, I will outline how some simple group and game activities can serve as confidence builders
for students who, however hard we try, start every class with a sense of foreboding.

He has also written more than a hundred ELT radio and television programmes, including fifty

Reducing Fear, Increasing Confidence - How to Reach the Students Who Think That Learning is an Ordeal
Ken Wilson, Author, UK

This year’s conference is also featuring the launch of a new book: “Multicultural Education in Colleges and Universities:
Developing Strengths-Based Narratives for Teaching and Learning” which is to be published by Palgrave Macmillan, and that
forms part of the Palgrave Studies in Global Citizenship and Democracy Series (Series editor: Prof. Jason Laker). The book is byDamian Spiteri Ph.D. who is previously from Malta, and now lectures at the University of York. The book is rooted in datathat the author gathered from students from an asylum seeking background when working in Malta as a college lecturer.
This highly original work thereby clearly locates multicultural education in the lived contexts of university and college
students, and proposes that students often need to read ‘between the lines’ when relating to one another, particularly if
the worlds that they come from are highly disparate. In so doing, they would all ‘grow’ by becoming more self-reflexive
as they explore their own assumptions of the world and how these assumptions influence how they think, what they say,and how they act. Building on this, the book deconstructs the meaning of culture and accentuates the need to dispenseof cultural stereotypes if understanding and empathy are to prevail. The book also locates multicultural education in thedigital age and, in so doing, shows that multicultural education is an evolving discipline. Above all the book shows thatmulticultural education merits prominence in today’s college and university curricula due to its relevance to students’ lives.

The International Academic Forum
Academic Vision and Mission“To Open Minds, To Educate Intelligence, To Inform Decisions”
The vision of IAFOR grew out of the perceived need to fill a vacuum in the communication and exchange activitiesof the academic world. Its mission arose out of examining that space and investigating why it existed. The vacuum
existed because of the lack of opportunity for serious and thoughtful exchange between academics, members of the
global business community, and practitioners in the fields of human endeavor that linked these groups together. In
the field of education, for example, we have academic theorists, educational managers (political decision-makers andorganisational directors) and classroom teachers with their support staff in IT, library work, exchange programmes,and specialist fields. But how often do they have the opportunity to interact?
Moving beyond one particular field, larger questions arise. What function should universities prioritise in the 21st
century? What do businesses see as their contribution to social and global well-being? How can people on the
ground, trying to implement improvements that will transform human life, best be supported? And perhaps above all,what are the agendas that will drive mechanisms to enable these groups to interact effectively.
One piece of distilled thought that came from early exchanges at one of our conferences was the recognition thatsome of the rhetoric of concern about the problems of developing nations was perhaps over-focused on the term
“poverty” because it can be defined only in a relative way. “Hunger” was put forward as being more immediate
and itself a contributory factor to poverty, rather than the other way round. One key to the hunger issue could
be the provision of safe drinking water, or water for irrigation in some contexts, while flood management might benecessary elsewhere. These, in and by themselves become valuable only insofar as they help to relieve hunger in
specific contexts.
IAFOR is affording opportunities that do not exist elsewhere. The base is Kansai, Japan’s great commercial andmanufacturing hub, one symbol of the emerging Pacific economy that is already eclipsing the long dominant Atlantic
zone. Our conferences present those taking part with three unique dimensions of experience. First of all, theyencourage interdisciplinary activity to be expanded. Depending on the field, this can face varying degrees of difficulty,
ranging from discouragement to downright prohibition. Those overly dependent on fixed academic structures often
see lateral thinking as a threat. None of these negatives apply in IAFOR. Its purpose is to generate new approaches
that cross any disciplinary lines.The principle employed is to let the imagination permit intuitive responses to questions.
There are no panels of critics. There are simply people who want to listen and reflect. The model of academic work
as potholing is replaced by the metaphor of mountaineering. While respecting the need for solid and well-founded
academic work, we feel the need to go beyond it from time to time to discover fresh approaches to old questions.
Secondly, it facilitates the heightening of intercultural awareness. Again, we encourage innovation through crosscultural perception. Cultural roots influence people in their attitudes more than most would realise or admit. The
need to see and internalise insights gained from other viewpoints is met by a process of steady illumination.
Thirdly, it promotes the broadening of international exchange. We may live in a world, but in reality parochialism
still holds sway. The collapse of the U.S.S.R and the break-up of Yugoslavia led to the re-establishment of numerous
former countries. While this may be desirable for the peoples concerned, it merely adds to the world’s cultural
confusion. Exchange leads to explanation and that helps the growth of intercultural awareness.
IAFOR makes all of these developments possible in one gathering. Our conferences are not a substitute for specialist
conferences. We intend our events to be an alternative that functions as a balance or even a corrective to theextreme tendencies that can arise from more narrowly defined research parameters. In short, IAFOR is promoting
and facilitating a new multifaceted approach to one of the core issues of our time, namely globalisation and its many
forms of growth and expansion. Awareness of how it cuts across the worlds of business, and academia, along with its
impact on societies and institutions is one of the driving forces that has given the organisation its momentum, and ismaking it a pioneer in this global age.
