Formats

The formats chosen for Languages & The Media 2010 are designed to ensure we have the most dynamic and diverse agenda possible driven by experts and practitioners willing to share their experiences with you.

The agenda is made up of the following types of sessions:

Pre-Conference Workshops

An exciting programme of optional workshops will take place on Wednesday, October 6th offering participants the opportunity to gain practical knowledge and insights from leading experts in a variety of specialised fields. The number of participants is limited to ensure a productive working environment and to encourage active participation.

Presentation Sessions

Presentation sessions will take place on the two main conference days, Thursday, October 7th and Friday, October 8th. The presentations will feature a description of a particular experience or activity or alternatively an approach, an opinion or a view of a particular topic relevant to this year’s conference themes. Time will be dedicated during all presentation sessions for audience interaction.

Panel Discussions

Panel discussions will take place on the two main conference days, Thursday, October 7th and Friday, October 8th. These discussions are designed not only to have a panel discuss and debate certain issues, but to also actively involve conference participants in an informal and stimulating manner.
