3rd TESOL BD- DIU International Conference 2025"Bridging Divides: Human-Centred Language Education in the Age of AI and Social Transformation "
Venue: Daffodil International University (DIU)
Pre-Conference Event: December 4, 2025
Conference Event: December 5- 6, 2025
TESOL Society of Bangladesh, in collaboration with Daffodil International University, is organising a three-day international conference on the significance of bridging human-centred language education in the fast-paced era of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and broad global transformation. Artificial Intelligence (AI) offers unprecedented opportunities for personalised learning but also risks exacerbating existing divides in access and opportunity. A human-centred approach to language education—one that prioritises thoughtful engagement, empathy, and critical reflection—is essential, more than ever before, to bridge these gaps and foster meaningful communication across linguistic and socioeconomic boundaries. By centring human dignity and meaningful participation, we can harness the power of AI while ensuring that language education remains a powerful tool for social cohesion, cultural preservation, and global understanding. This paradigm shift calls for collaborative efforts among educators, technologists, and policymakers to create learning environments that are both technologically advanced and fundamentally humane.
The sub-themes of the conference might include, but are not limited to, the following:
● Technology and Human-Focused Learning
● Integrating Overlooked Perspectives in Language Education
● Use of Language in a Digital Era
● Advocacy for Multilingual Societies
● Ethical Tech and Mental Health
● Education for Social Change and Wellness
● Evolving Teachers’ Roles in the Age of AI
● Teachers’ challenges in adopting AI in teaching
● Fostering Critical Thinking through AI
● Integrating AI in teaching literature and cultural studies
● Harmonising language and literature studies
● Language Education and Reformation
● Empowering Humanity in Language Learning
● Learner-Oriented Innovations in Language Teaching
● Technology as a Catalyst for Language Education Reform
● Social Media and the Democratisation of Language Reformation
● Sustainable Practices in Tech-Enhanced Education
