Conference 2024

Welcome to CALICO 2024 “Confluences and Connections: Bridging Industry and Academia in CALL”, May 21-25

We are thrilled to welcome you to the 2024 CALICO Conference in Pittsburgh, PA, the ‘City of Bridges’! 

With our iconic spans symbolizing connectivity and progress, and our rivers joining in a spectacular confluence, Pittsburgh serves as the perfect backdrop for this event. 

Home to renowned academic institutions (Carnegie Mellon University, Pitt), industry leaders in technology-enhanced learning (Duolingo) and educational games (Schell Games), as well as community networks of innovative educators (Remake Learning), Pittsburgh is a place to explore confluences and make connections.

Against the ever-evolving landscape of technology-enhanced language learning (TELL), this conference aims to explore the latest advancements, innovations, and best practices in computer-assisted language learning (CALL). The latest advancements in Artificial Intelligence (AI), augmented reality (AR), virtual reality (VR), and extended reality (XR), as well as playful approaches to language learning have been transformative forces in language education, making our field more engaging and effective than ever before. We are excited to explore with you the dynamic synergy between industry, not-for-profit organizations, and the academic community as we all explore these new opportunities!

We invite you to join us at CALICO 2024, bring your contribution, and envision how we can bring the best out of each other and together chart a course for a brighter, more connected, and generative future in CALL.
