And luckily, this year, we have another contribution to our session from a paper accepted to general sessions:

• Mondheera “Ampere” Pituxcoosuvarn, Sai Chandra Teja Radhapur, Yohei Murakami: Enhancing ESL Speaking Skills through Language Model Integration in Interactive Games

We have welcomed not only presenters but also some participants who just jumped into our session and contributed to the discussions. We are so happy to say that we had more than 60 individual participants in total. We believe it is not too much to say that an invited session with such a number of participants in KES should be a very good success.

The pictures of the sessions are as follows;

We organized a night session, actually which is the most important for networking. It was held in the city of Sevilla. We continued to discuss the gap or affinity of culture and arts with Spanish dishes, and they also had a kind of language exchange.

The conference will be held at Silken Al-Andalus Palace, modern and bright, emerges as an oasis in the Andalusian capital, among the gardens of the Heliopolis neighbourhood and close to the María Luisa Park and Plaza de España, the venue is only a few minutes taxi from the centre of Seville.

Seville (Sevilla in Spanish) is the capital and largest city of Andalusia and the province of Seville, Spain and lies on the plain of the River Guadalquivir. Seville has a population of about 700,000, although including the suburbs this increases to 1.5 million. Its Old Town contains three UNESCO World Heritage Sites: the Alcazar palace complex, the Cathedral and the General Archive of the Indies. Seville harbour, about 80 kilometres from the Atlantic, is the only river port in Spain. The pleasant climate, historical and cultural features, shops, restaurants and nightlife, make Seville an extremely attractive place to visit.
