Newsletter No. 45 - December 2012
From the President Dear APIBA Members and e-group subscribers, As you will see in this Newsletter, APIBA had an eventful second semester. Below you will read all about the SEEDS Project, APIBA at FAAPI 2012 Conference, APIBA Annual Seminar in memory of Prof. Ana María Armendariz, the Call for Applications to the APIBA “Prof. Ana María Armendariz” Scholarship, the launch of “APIBA Junior”, “APIBA Senior” and “APIBA Mentorship” programmes, the Second APIBA Unconference by APIBA SIGs and our End-of-Year Toast.

Now, time to wind down and recharge batteries. Do enjoy the festive season and your well-deserved holidays!
On Saturday, December 1st APIBA SIGs held an Unconference to close this year’s
meetings. It was the first time a Closing Event had had this format, and it was
welcomed by all the participants. All the
SIGs (Language & Phonology, e-Teaching
and Learning, Literature, Methodology,
Young Learners, Professional Issues) had
the chance to share this year’s work through
posters and presentations in charge of SIG
members. Some SIGs also invited special
guest speakers, who highly contributed to
making this event memorable. See APIBA
SIGs Unconference Programme HERE
Our special thanks to all SIG members and Coordinators for their invaluable help throughout the year, to all the special guest speakers for their generosity in sharing their knowledge with us, to APIBA Executive Committee for their unfailing support and, last but not least, to the authorities of INSPT-UTN for their hospitality and for sharing our End-of-Year Toast. APIBA SIGs provide their members with a great forum for professional development in a genuine atmosphere of comradeship, mutual respect and a shared passion for our profession. We do hope you can join us next year! Very best wishes, Viviana Myslicki and Romina Arena APIBA SIGs Liaison Officers
