Reimagining research and teaching with GenAI: Publishing, practice and pedagogy Chair: Dr. Florence Bonacina-Pugh, Joint Senior Lead of the LIL Hub.Abstract This talk draws on my experience in editing, academic publishing, practitioner research and innovative pedagogy with generative AI. Building on recent work in the Annual Review of Applied Linguistics (Lee, Jeon, McKinley & Rose, 2025), I discuss how GenAI is reshaping English language teaching through a global Englishes lens, creating new opportunities and challenges for researchers and practitioners. The session provides practical guidance for publishing and for integrating practitioner research with pedagogical innovation, supporting participants to engage critically and productively with GenAI in higher education.BioJim McKinley is Professor of Applied Linguistics in higher education at UCL Institute of Education, and Honorary Research Fellow at the University of Oxford Department of Education. He has taught and researched in the UK, Japan, Australia, Uganda, and Ireland, most recently as a NAWA Ulam Research Fellow (UEK, 2023) and Visiting Senior Researcher at Waseda (2025). His research explores the internationalisation of higher education, focusing on EMI, L2 academic writing, doctoral writing and the teaching-research nexus. He is Co-Editor-in-Chief of System, Co-Editor of Cambridge Elements: Language Teaching, and incoming Chief Editor of TESOL Quarterly.
