This volume contains a selection of fourteen articles that originated as papers presented
at the Second Applied Linguistics and Language Teaching (ALLT) International
Conference and Exhibition which was held from 7 to 9 March 2019 at Zayed
University, Dubai, United Arab Emirates. The papers selected for inclusion showcase
contributions that document theory, research, and pedagogy within the field of ALLT in
the Arab Gulf and beyond. The volume is divided into five sections:
• Teaching of Language Skills and Sub skills
• Student Engagement, Motivation and Well being
• Curriculum Development and Pedagogy
• English Language Teaching and Technology
• Language-Based and Classroom-Based Research
The papers included in this volume represent the diverse backgrounds, experiences,
and research interests of the ALLT presenters. The contributions are a mix of theoretical,
empirical and pedagogical practices with a strong emphasis on language teaching.
While most of the papers in the proceedings focus on English language, the findings
gained and lessons learned are also useful to the teaching of any language. This makes
the Proceedings of the Applied Linguistics and Language Teaching (ALLT 2019)
Conference: Engaging in Change: New Perspectives of Teaching and Learning an
invaluable resource, addressing important aspects of contemporary research topics and
the pedagogy of language teaching.
