What Do We Know from 1 1⁄2 Decades of LESLLA Symposia?

Abstract

This paper provides an overview of 13 years of plenaries, panels, papers, posters and workshops presented at Literacy Education and Second Language Learning for Adults (LESLLA) symposia. These are described in terms of their methodology, their focus, where the presenters come from and/or work. When considering these presentations against the Mission Statement, it becomes apparent that the stated aims are still out of reach. Ways to begin to meet these aims are suggested.
