[Ethnocomm] Fwd: [LING-ETHNOG] TeachLing annual recruitment drive!

[Nadezhda Sotirova]

Hi all,
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:)
Cheers,
Nade

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
serendipity and
adventure of conference season winds down, as people change jobs (or
finally get
jobs), as the ivory tower ushers us back and the lecture halls beckon us
into their
warm embrace, now is the time to join our online community. We currently
have 793
members from all over the world, and regular useful discussions about a
delightful
diversity of pedagogical topics and subdisciplinary areas! What's not to
like??

As if all this wasn't exciting enough, this year I thought I'd remind
everyone of a
resource I put together in 2014, and kept updating regularly since. It's 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 academically robust, honest.)

ANYWAY... down to business: joining TeachLing! Please do join our little
community by
adding your email address here: https://goo.gl/34wVVk. (People on mobile
toys will
need to tap the little pencil icon in the top right, then install the
Google Docs app
if it isn't already installed.)

Feel free to forward this message far and wide, and please share the tweet
announcement too! https://twitter.com/DaveJSayers/status/1032938278234869761
.

See you on TeachLing :)

Dave
