X-Listprocessor-Version: 6.0c -- ListProcessor by Anastasios Kotsikonas Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Content-Type: text/plain; charset=iso-8859-1 Status: O Content-Length: 2433 Lines: 89 Paul (and other interested parties), Information regarding the 2006 NABE conference can be found at the NABE website. I just "googled" it and a page containing all the necessary information came up. . . . The program for this year's conference includes several well-known researchers in the field of Second Language Acquisition (e.g., Cummins, Krashen, Genesee, and Freeman to name a few), so there should be plenty of opportunities to gain interesting and applicable knowledge about teaching ESL students of all ages. Enjoy the conference!
