Hello one and all...

It's that time of year again: the annual recruitment drive for TeachLing, the
world's biggest online community for university linguistics teaching! As the
seasons change, so too do many people's careers - taking up a first teaching
post, moving from one post to another, or perhaps gathering a collection of
them. All are welcome!

We currently have almost 900 members from all over the world, and regular
useful discussions about a delightful diversity of pedagogical topics and
subdisciplinary areas. We talk about everything from the latest innovations in
technologically enhanced techniques to the grand old traditions of walk, talk
and chalk. Come and join the fun!

I also usually take this opportunity to remind everyone of a resource I put
together in 2014, and which I've kept updating since: a full list of all the
linguistics-related strips from my favourite web comic, XKCD!
https://is.gd/p5uFOJ. Useful in bringing presentations to life. For other
comics related to linguistics, there's also this page by Hal Schiffman (U
Penn): http://ccat.sas.upenn.edu/plc/clpp/images/cartoons/cartoons.html.
(Discussions on TeachLing are usually more pedagogically robust, honest.)

So, hopefully all that is enough to entice you into the warm embrace of our
little community. If so, add your name and email address here:
https://goo.gl/34wVVk. (People on mobile gadgets will need to install the
Google Docs app first.)

Feel free to forward this message far and wide, and please share the tweet
announcement too! https://twitter.com/DaveJSayers/status/1169519275884916736.

See you on TeachLing!

Dave
