3L Summer School 2010

[Peter Austin]

The Leiden University Centre for Linguistics (LUCL) is proud to host the
third 3L International Summer School on Language Documentation and
Description from Monday, 5 July to Saturday, 17 July, 2010.

Registration for the 3L Summer School is now open! For more information on
the program, courses, instructors, and more, please visit the 2010 3L Summer
School website located at:

http://www.hrelp.org/events/3L/leiden2010/index.html.

The 3L Summer School offers a variety of courses on all aspects of language
documentation and description for both future and novice field linguists.
Courses cover both practical and typological issues and include:

- Practical training in fieldwork methods and grammar writing
- Recording techniques and software for documentation, description and
archiving
- In-depth courses on specific areas such as negation, tone, and kinship
terminology
- The documentation of endangered Sign Languages
- Courses investigating various aspects of languages found in Central and
South America, Indonesia, Africa, and the Caucasus

A Student Conference will be held during the Summer School on Saturday, 10
July, 2010, giving students an opportunity to present their ideas or
research and receive feedback from their instructors and fellow peers.

The 3L Summer School draws upon the extensive expertise of the three
organizing universities in the 3L Consortium: University of Lyon, Leiden
University and the School of Oriental and African Studies, London. It builds
upon the successes of the first 3L Summer School held in Lyon in 2008, and
the second 3L Summer School held in London in 2009.

The 3L Summer School in 2010 will be followed by the Leiden Summer School in
Languages and Linguistics, which will take place in the second half of July.
