EUROCALL Research Award
[ 2001 award ] [ 2002 award ] [ 2007 award ]
This annual award aims to encourage newcomers to research in the field of computer-assisted and technology-enhanced language learning by providing an opportunity to submit an original article for publication in ReCALL, the official journal of EUROCALL which is published by Cambridge University Press. The Research Award having been suspended for a few years has been relaunched in 2007 at the request of EUROCALL President Ana Gimeno.
The benefits of the award are:
-
The guarantee of publication in ReCALL
-
Free registration at a EUROCALL conference*
-
One year’s free membership of EUROCALL
To compete for the award, candidates should be actively engaged in relevant research, either working towards a PhD or other postgraduate qualification, or having recently completed one. Articles should be submitted each year by 31st January, according to the information set out in the ReCALL Notes for Contributors, and should be clearly marked 'EUROCALL Research Award'. A short curriculum vitae should accompany the article, together with a letter from the candidate’s institution confirming their research status. All submissions will be considered by the ReCALL Academic Advisory Panel and by the EUROCALL Executive Committee, whose decision will be final.
The name of the winner of the award will be announced at the EUROCALL conference and on the EUROCALL website, and the article will be published in the ReCALL Journal. The Committee may decide to publish more than one of the articles submitted, but only one award will be made annually.
*The registration fee excludes accommodation and travel costs and must be taken up within one year of the Award.
