Abstract: The teacher training is a requirement for the graduation in the Course of Letters, which is the core of articulation between university and school, an essential space for the initial formation of the language teacher, where professional classroom experiences articulate theory and practice. The context of docent training is plural: in some universities, the training subjects belong to the Course of Letters, as, in other ones, belong to the Course of Education. Each context has its own profile of teacher formation, according to both the subjects available and the objectives pursued. Even in the same course, there is very peculiar plurality in the development of docent training, according to the teacher. This cluster of factors suggests that we have both to invest much more in the initial formation of the teacher; and to take advantage of the results of the applied linguistic researches. Aware of this reality and of the important roll of the Applied Ling uistics, we invite researchers and teachers, interested in contributing to the discussion about this issue, in order to build up a corpus on the initial formation of the language teacher and to describe the context of teacher training. The papers must present the results of the researches or describe the context of teacher training.

Submission deadline: 30 May 2018
