Topic: Value added English learning is learning that seeks to fill additional purposes that students see as important to their lives and to the world they live in. I will give examples of the personal goals of well-being that nearly everyone has (using songs, play, and health issues), the social-activist goals that students can become more aware of (with video excerpts from students and NGOs), and of the global-phylogenetic goals that deal with sustainability and altruism that we all need to become more aware of. We will playfully, briefly, and selectively look at the anthropological history of humanity (only the last six million years!) and combine that with some views on our agency, social capital, and altruism, which I hold are primary values in education and lend themselves easily to cultivation in language classes in which “all subjects are ours” (Rivers, 1975, p. 96). “I think the human spirit always wants to make a contribution. And I don’t think there are enough invitations” (Angeles Arrien in Briskin, Erickson, Ott, and Callanan, 2009, p. 156). “So let’s make more invitations.” (Tim, Oct 29th, 2011).

This workshop focuses on child (4-12) foreign language acquisition in school contexts. Research exploring how children of that age range interact while completing communicative tasks is lacking, especially in foreign language settings. Philp, Oliver and Mackey (2008: 13) stated that there is a need for “rich, detailed descriptions of the many and various factors which interact to impact a given child’s L2 development.” Thus, we will welcome studies carried out within interactionist or sociocultural approaches and focused on different aspects of child foreign language development. Topics that will fit this call for papers will be, among others:- Task-based interaction among children (task familiarity, planning time, attention to form … etc)- Teacher input to young learners (instructions and models while carrying out tasks) and its impact on child language development.- L1 use - The role of peers in child foreign language acquisition- Pedagogical implications for the design of age-appropriate tasks- Child metalinguistic awareness- Child motivation and attitude toward tasks- Concerns and challenges in child foreign language acquisition
