Third Annual Spring Research Seminar: Research Update in Multilingual Approaches and Communication

On 24 March, the Institute for Multilingualism held its Third Annual Spring Research Seminar with the aim of disseminating current research and promoting the exchange of experiences between professors who teach in English at the University. This year's participants included researchers from the Institute for Multilingualism, the Faculty of Education and the DEMOS research group, a joint collaboration between the University of Navarra and University of the Basque Country. 

The event featured two conferences:

Preparing for internationalisation: Support for teaching staff, by Dr Ruth Breeze (University of Navarra), and Interview data in discourse studies: On the interpretive and functional use of active interviews in interpretive and functional discourse analyses, by Dr Jan Zienkowski (University of Navarra).

With this event, organised for the third consecutive year, the Institute further asserts its position as a research centre in the field of foreign language learning and acquisition at UIC Barcelona.
