<div dir="ltr">Hi all,<div>I'm sharing this linguistic pedagogy listserv as I met Dave at a conference last year, and have found it very useful when it comes to pedagogy resources. Hope you do too... if not, I'm sure you might at least enjoy the comics he shares in this one email:)</div><div>Cheers,</div><div>Nade <br><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr">---------- Forwarded message ---------<br>From: <strong class="gmail_sendername" dir="auto">Dave Sayers</strong> <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:dave.sayers@cantab.net">dave.sayers@cantab.net</a>></span><br>Date: Fri, Aug 24, 2018 at 5:41 AM<br>Subject: [LING-ETHNOG] TeachLing annual recruitment drive!<br>To: <<a href="mailto:LING-ETHNOG@jiscmail.ac.uk">LING-ETHNOG@jiscmail.ac.uk</a>><br></div><br><br>Hello one and all...<br>
<br>
It's that time of year again: the annual recruitment drive for TeachLing, the world's <br>
biggest online community for university linguistics teaching! As the serendipity and <br>
adventure of conference season winds down, as people change jobs (or finally get <br>
jobs), as the ivory tower ushers us back and the lecture halls beckon us into their <br>
warm embrace, now is the time to join our online community. We currently have 793 <br>
members from all over the world, and regular useful discussions about a delightful <br>
diversity of pedagogical topics and subdisciplinary areas! What's not to like??<br>
<br>
As if all this wasn't exciting enough, this year I thought I'd remind everyone of a <br>
resource I put together in 2014, and kept updating regularly since. It's a full list <br>
of all the linguistics-related strips from my favourite web comic, XKCD: <br>
<a href="https://is.gd/p5uFOJ" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">https://is.gd/p5uFOJ</a>. Useful in bringing presentations to life! For other comics <br>
related to linguistics, there's also this page by Hal Schiffman (U Penn): <br>

TeachLing are usually more academically robust, honest.)<br>
<br>
ANYWAY... down to business: joining TeachLing! Please do join our little community by <br>
adding your email address here: <a href="https://goo.gl/34wVVk" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">https://goo.gl/34wVVk</a>. (People on mobile toys will <br>
need to tap the little pencil icon in the top right, then install the Google Docs app <br>
if it isn't already installed.)<br>
<br>
