On October 04-05, 2024, the Centre for Educational Research on Languages and Literacies (CERLL) co-organized the Fifth Symposium of the Southern Ontario Universities, sponsored by CERLL, Western University and Niagara College. Read about our Symposium highlights or rewatch presentations!

With the theme of ā€˜Reimagining Languages and Literacies Educationā€™, the two-day symposium, hosted by Western University, was a vibrant hub for thoughtful discussions, innovative ideas, and research-informed discourse striving poised to shape the future of emerging research and praxis in Languages and Literacies Education.

The event saw robust participation from across Ontario, Canada and beyond, both in-person and online, and brought together educators, researchers, and students to present, and engage with expert insights on the evolving landscape of language and education research.
