<h1>Call for Papers for PAC Journal (Japan Section) </h1>
<P>What is PAC Journal? In 1997 three Asian based language teaching
organizations--JALT, ThaiTESOL and KoreaTESOLÜlaunched the Pan Asia Conference Series, the first of which was
held in Bangkok and the second in Seoul, Korea in 1999, hosted by KoreaTESOL. The conference series was started in
an effort to bring together language teachers from the various regions of Asia, to give them an opportunity to discuss the
similarities and differences that exist in their various teaching contexts and, as an extension, to encourage and foster
collaborative research efforts. After four years of steady encouragement and mutual exchange, this collaborative effort
has begun to bear fruit in the form of joint presentations and articles that have only recently begun to find their way into
print in various of our PAC partner's journals.
