Meeting Description:

The purpose of this workshop is to create a forum to exchange ideas, tools,
and techniques in teaching Laboratory Phonology.  The workshop is being help
as a satellite event of LabPhon17 and will feature invited speaker Mary
Beckman, Professor Emeritus of Linguistics, Ohio State University.  

Some of the questions we aim to address include:
 
- What role does laboratory phonology have in the undergraduate/graduate
curriculum?  
- Is it possible to design a course in laboratory phonology that does not have
a more “traditional” phonology and/or phonetics course(s) as pre-requisite(s)?
 
- What technical / computational / statistical issues arise?  
- Alternatively, does a laboratory phonology approach lend itself more to a
topic-driven course in which a particular research question is investigated,
or a more traditional phonology course that surveys one or more phonological
frameworks?  
- What do sample activities/assignments/syllabi centered on a particular topic
within laboratory phonology look like, and how might they be improved based on
current research in pedagogy?  

Our goal is for this workshop to initiate a conversation amongst researchers
and instructors about pedagogical challenges, approaches, and resources that
arise in bringing laboratory phonology into the classroom.

This workshop is being organized by Christina Bjorndahl (Carnegie Mellon
University), Mark Gibson (Universidad de Navarra) and Jonathan Howell
(Montclair State University).


Call for Papers:

Types of submissions:

- Presentations
We invite submissions for 15-minute oral presentations on a variety of topics
that introduce novel approaches to teaching laboratory phonology.  We will
conclude this session with a general Q&A with all presenters together.

- Poster/demo session
The poster/demo session will include both conventional posters as well as
technology-based demos using presenters' laptop computers.  The workshop will
provide both a space for displaying posters and tables for presenters to set
up their laptops.

- Lightning talks
We invite submissions for 2-minute lightning talks.  These informal,
lightning-fast talks are ideal for sharing anecdotal classroom tips and
tricks, both successes and failures.  We will conclude this session with a
general Q&A with all presenters together.  Lightning talk presenters will
submit their slides in advance of the workshop so that all talks can be part
of a single slide presentation.

We invite abstracts for 15-minute oral presentations, 2-minute lightning
talks, poster presentations, and demos.  The abstract submission form can be
found at https://forms.gle/XkDt4Qc2xSMuPLad7

The deadline for oral presentations, poster presentations, and demos is
February 1, 2020.  Notification of acceptance will go out March 1, 2020.

The deadline for lightning talks is May 15, 2020.  Notification of acceptance
will go out June 1, 2020, and slides will be due June 15, 2020.

Submission guidelines:

- Oral presentations & posters
Abstracts for oral presentations and posters should not exceed one page
(single-spaced, 12pt font) including figures and references.

- Demos
Abstracts for demos should not exceed one page, and should clearly describe
the pedagogical challenge that is addressed by the demonstration, and the
nature of audience involvement.  Please note that we will be providing tables
for presenters to set up their laptops, but no other equipment.  If you
require other resources, please contact the organizers to see about
feasibility.

- Lightning talks
Abstracts for lightning talks should not exceed one paragraph, and should
clearly state the pedagogical setting (e.g., undergraduate class vs. graduate
seminar) and briefly describe the idea.

As we would like to include perspectives from a variety of pedagogical
settings and institutions, please include your name and affiliation in the
abstract.  The file name should be of the form lastname_title.pdf (e.g.,
Smith_AwesomeClassroomInnovation.pdf).
