Laura Collins is an associate professor at the TESL Centre in the Department of Education at Concordia University and the Applied Linguistics theme group leader at the Centre for the Study of Learning and Performance. Her research interests are informed by her years spent teaching second languages, and include the acquisition of verb morphology in a second language, time-on-task effects (how different concentrations of instructional time affect language learning), and peer interaction in bilingual school contexts. Laura heads a funded research team at Concordia (ALERT: Acquiring Language Efficiently: Research and Teaching) which is investigating the effects of the complex interaction of language sounds, word meanings, and grammatical forms on language acquisition in classroom settings. She teaches courses on second language acquisition, pedagogical grammar, and cross-linguistic influence.
Danièle Moore is a Professor at the Faculty of Education at Simon Fraser University, Vancouver. She has published extensively on issues related to language acquisition, literacy development, bilingualism, curriculum development and teacher training in multicultural contexts. Her most recent research include investigations of intergenerational teaching and learning strategies within a First Nations Heritage Language Revitalization Program, literacy development among trilingual children, and social inclusion of vulnerable children and their families within the Canadian school system and outside. She is the author of Plurilinguismes et école, published in 2006 (Paris, Éditions Didier, Collection LAL), and she co-authored several Reference Studies for the Council of Europe, notably Plurilingual and Pluricultural Competence (with Daniel Coste and Geneviève Zarate, 1997 et 2009) and Valoriser, mobiliser et développer les répertoires plurilingues et pluriculturels pour une meilleure intégration scolaire (with Véronique Castellotti, 2010). She is the French editor of the on-line journal Child Health and Education/Santé et Éducation de l’Enfance (www.childhealthandeduction.com), and acted as Co-President for the Scientific Committee of the journal Recherches et applications – le Français dans le Monde (http://fipf.org/publications/recherches-applications).
