The Asia-Pacific Society for Computers in Education and PacCALL provide academic consulting and supporting services for the conference. The conference offers a platform for academics, researchers, and practitioners from transdisciplinary fields such as computer science, linguistics, educational technology, and various language education disciplines worldwide. It will facilitate idea-sharing, promote research, practice, and theory-building, and explore innovative approaches to drive future language learning. The conference programme includes pre-conference workshops, keynotes, forums, and concurrent paper presentations. All the accepted papers in the conference will be published in ISBN-coded proceedings.

Theme: Picturing the Future of Language Education in the Intelligence Era

The rapid expansion of intelligent technologies is reshaping theories, methodologies, and practices in technology-enhanced language learning (TELL) giving rise to new language teaching and learning phenomena. This has sparked global interest around the world in the role of technology in language education, particularly in its potential to provide greater access, affordability, and personal learning experiences. The future of language learning in the ever-changing digital and intelligent era needs to be constantly envisioned. ICFULL & GloCALL, 2025 will convene in Beijing from 23-25 May 2025 to explore future and current issues surrounding the impact of intelligent technologies on language learning.

IICFULL & GloCALL, 2025 aims to bring together scholars and practitioners to share their insights and explore the potential of advanced technologies in shaping the future of language education. The conference invites original research on theories, methodologies, and pedagogies in Technology-Enhanced Language Learning (TELL). Key areas of focus include AI-supported language learning, personalised and adaptive learning, digital game-based learning, technology-assisted self-directed learning, learning analytics in language education, and assessment using emerging technologies. Additionally, it welcomes studies on the design and application of new technologies in language learning. Ethical considerations surrounding TELL will also be discussed to deepen understanding of the human-machine relationship. In summary, ICFULL & GloCALL 2025 seeks to illuminate the current landscape and future directions of language learning powered by technological innovation.
