Linguistic Field(s): Language Acquisition 

Meeting Description: 

Do you have LENA or other large-scale, naturalistic recordings you want to
share with other researchers while protecting the privacy of the participants?
Do you have a great research question about children’s real-world language
experiences and want to gain access to existing child language recordings? Do
you want to connect with other researchers studying children’s real-world
language experiences? Are you going to ICIS?
Then please join us in the Grand Salon 12 on May 25, 4-7 pm (snacks provided),
when we will introduce HomeBank, the part of TalkBank focused on large-scale
child-centered recordings.

In this workshop we will:

Describe the structure of HomeBank, how to donate files and how to become a
registered member to access confidential files
Provide advice on ethical acquisition, vetting and sharing of large-scale
recordings
Provide demonstration of HomeBank functionality (both the recordings’ and
github repositories)
Provide expedited onsite registration of new corpora and users
Provide a forum for networking with other researchers engaged in studies with
real-world child language recordings

The LINGUIST List is under the umbrella of Indiana University and 
as such can receive donations through the eLinguistics Foundation, 
which is a registered 501(c) Non Profit organization. Our Federal 
Tax number is 45-4211155. These donations can be offset against 
your federal and sometimes your state tax return (U.S. tax payers only). 
For more information visit the IRS Web-Site, or contact your financial 
advisor.

Many companies also offer a gift matching program, such that 
they will match any gift you make to a non-profit organization. 
Normally this entails your contacting your human resources department 
and sending us a form that the eLinguistics Foundation fills in and 
returns to your employer. This is generally a simple administrative 
procedure that doubles the value of your gift to LINGUIST, without 
costing you an extra penny. Please take a moment to check if 
your company operates such a program.

Thank you very much for your support of LINGUIST!
