a platform (to be announced) a few weeks before the beginning of the
conference. Conference participants will then have an opportunity to
watch presentations before the beginning of the conference. During the
conference itself, each paper presentation will be given scheduled time
for questions and discussion synchronously over Zoom (details of the
discussion period will be announced in October 2020). We are also
exploring different ways of encouraging interaction asynchronously
(e.g., by posting comments and questions) or synchronously throughout
the conference. </p><p style="box-sizing:border-box;margin:24px 0px 0px;color:rgb(29,29,29);font-family:"Open Sans",Arial,Tahoma,sans-serif;font-size:16px"><b style="box-sizing:border-box">Posters</b>:
To allow for as many poster presentations as possible, posters will be
uploaded as a PDF a few weeks prior to the beginning of the conference.
Poster presenters will have the option of uploading an accompanying 10
minute audio/video recording walking participants through the poster.
Poster presenters will also have the opportunity to interact with
participants at a scheduled time during the conference.</p><p style="box-sizing:border-box;margin:24px 0px 0px;color:rgb(29,29,29);font-family:"Open Sans",Arial,Tahoma,sans-serif;font-size:16px"><span style="box-sizing:border-box;font-size:inherit">All

in your abstract, please be sure to replace your name(s) with “Author.”
For example, if you are Ted Smith and you wrote an article in 2009,
which you are citing in your file (i.e., Smith (2009) ), you would
change it to “Author (2009).” If you are including a list of references

for Most Impactful Paper will be given to the three best abstracts by
(i) students and/or (ii) members of an underrepresented language
community who are actively working to document their heritage language
and are not employed by a college or university. If you or one of your
co-presenters is eligible, go ahead and mark yourself as eligible
accordingly. The Award will come with an honorarium of US$200, supported
by the National Science Foundation. If your proposal receives an Award,
we will contact you to discuss which eligible person(s) will receive
the honorarium. NOTE: Please be advised that the honoraria are
considered taxable income under U.S. tax laws. U.S. citizens and
residents can expect to receive a 1099 form to figure into their annual
tax return for 2021. Non-U.S. citizens/residents will have the
applicable taxable amount (typically 30%) deducted from the scholarship
check prior to receipt. </li><li style="box-sizing:border-box;margin-top:8px">Proposals for papers and posters are <b style="box-sizing:border-box;font-size:inherit">due by September 30, 2020</b><span style="box-sizing:border-box;font-size:inherit">, with notification of acceptance by November 1, 2020.</span> Proposals will be submitted through EasyChair.
