Blended Mode of Participation in ICLTE 2023



ICLTE 2023 continued traditions of LASTE Conference and worked to provide an opportunity to a large international community of academicians to participate in the conference and present their studies.

That is why a blended mode of participation was chosen as the most optimal one offering the opportunities to those who would like to come to Turkey and, namely to Bursa as a conference central location, to visit the city, and at the same time to all those academicians who could not travel but were willing to present their studies at the forum to do it.


The conference was hosted in Bursa (Turkey). Those participants who were able to come personally, were invited to visit Akademik Koleji (Bursa) and have sessions with the students and teachers of the college.



Virtual presenters and attendees participated in online sessions and were able to follow all the conference program in an online mode.

Considering drastic changes in the world, global international relations affected by local and international geopolitical processes, rapid development of AI and its penetration in all spheres of life, the main target of ICLTE 2025 is to create an international forum of researchers and practitioners to discuss case studies, theories, practices, present technological solutions, aiming to: 

  • Overview the global processes together with the effects of the innovative digitalization with their influence on language studies, changes in educational paradigms and approaches;
  • Shed the lights on innovations in practices and techniques of teaching foreign languages;
  • Discuss the destiny of translation and its transformation as a science and a profession;
  • Share practices and approaches of implementing new tools and platforms for the purposes of languages studies, teaching languages and other subjects within social studies, translation and language processing.

We are working to shape the conference outline and make it really beneficial for all stakeholders and participants in terms of gaining new knowledge and skills, exchanging new ideas and experiences internationally.

We will be happy to invite new partners and stakeholders to join our conference organising committee to bring more benefits to the international academic community working in the field of language studies, translation and education.
