Welcome to the 12th GEIA Seminar!
The Organizing Committee welcomes all GEIA members, researchers, and Aviation English professionals from all over the world to the 12th GEIA Seminar.
Hosted by the Department of Airspace Control – DECEA - in the vibrant city of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, the in-person event offers an inspiring environment to exchange insights, experiences, and research findings across a wide range of aviation-related themes. What stands this edition apart is its strong emphasis on the synergy between technological innovation and the human dimension of aviation. Discussions will span critical areas—from cases of course and test design to the integration of AI and EdTech tools to aeronautical English teaching and assessment; from aviation language analysis to training and motivating for safety.
Our keynote speaker, Elizabeth Mathews from Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University, will open the seminar with an essential reminder: language is more than a medium—it is a human factor with direct implications for aviation safety.
From Monday to Wednesday, the event is open to the international community, all GEIA members and other interested parties. The program comprises 07workshops that promote hands-on activities to dig into relevant topics and skills. Additionally, there will be 09 oral presentations divided into 03 sessions, running through language awareness, case studies, motivational aspects, and interpersonal communication. The speakers, who come not only from Brazil but from all over the world (Asia, Europa, North and South America), invite us to reflect on how technology can enrich – not override – the irreplaceable value of human knowledge.
Thursday and Friday are reserved exclusively for the teacher development of aeronautical English instructors that serve the Brazilian Air Force. There will be 05 workshops tailored to their unique needs: practical activities for teaching pronunciation and grammar, game-based activities, error correction and actionable feedback. They will also receive some guidance on their important roles as Aeronautical English instructors. In the closing lecture, Valeria Silva de Oliveira will talk about teaching English for Navy professionals and discuss the similarities, differences and challenges of this military context in Brazil.
We are proud to promote this landmark event for the 12th year in a row, where global collaboration reinforces the shared goal of making aviation safer. Join us!
We are thankful to:
- DECEA (Brazilian Department of Airspace Control) and ICEA (Airspace Control Institute), for promoting the event.
- GEIA Organizing Committee for taking care of the countless tasks that made this event so special.
