International Symposium “LSP IN TIMES OF CHANGE”

At the symposium, we will address the changing role of language for specific purposes (LSP) education in today’s society and share research- and practice-based experiences. The discussion will focus on the impact of technological and societal changes on LSP education, the growing role of artificial intelligence in work and learning environments, and innovations in teaching, assessment and curriculum development.

Keynote speakers:

Cédric Sarré, Professor of Applied Linguistics at Sorbonne University. As both a lecturer and researcher, his main areas of interest are e-solutions for language learning and the integration of technology into LSP and teacher education.

Jaanika Jaanits, Junior Research Fellow at the University of Tartu. An anthropologist motivated by the development of organisations and people, change management, and various aspects of learning, communities and inclusion.
