Shona Whyte: Here's the programme for this year's EuroCALL conference to be held at the end of August in Sweden.
It gives an interesting overview of trends in CALL (computer-assisted language learning) research - mobile learning, gamification, corpora, computer-mediated communication (CMC) and telecollaboration - and features many of the main researchers working in this area in Europe and further afield.
There are two papers on the iTILT project (interactive technologies in language teaching, http://itilt.eu):
Thursday 23 August, 10:45 Developing criteria for the design and evaluation of interactive whiteboard based materials: Intermediate findings from the iTILT project
Saturday 25 August, 11:15 Perceptions of the IWB for second language teaching and learning: the iTILT
I'm also talking about curation for pre-service language teachers in the Teacher Education symposium on Thursday.

Shona Whyte: If you're interested in gamification in language teaching and learning, see these slides for a presentation on "Challenges in specifying and evaluating a conceptual design for a task-based mini-game environment for language learning" at last week's EuroCALL 2012 conference in Gothenburg by Frederik Cornillie, Andrew Grenfell, Scott Windeatt, Piet Desmet.
The presentation covers issues of design and second language research, shows examples of games, as well as feedback from learners on games designed by the team in the delightfully named GOBL project (Games Online for Basic Language Learning) involving Dutch, Belgian, and English learners http://lands.let.ru.nl/~strik/research/GOBL/ Delete the scoop?
