Second truly global /L+/ summer/winter school on language acquisition

Host Institution: Universität Potsdam
Coordinating Institution: University of Padua
Website: https://www.lplusschool.org/home

Dates: 14-Aug-2023 - 18-Aug-2023
Location: Online, Everywhere

Focus: TOPICS: The lecture topics are organized into four different
streams:

    Phonological development

    Lexical development

    Morphosyntax development

    Effects of the environment on development


Each stream will consist of five 45-minute lectures that will be
taught by instructors with extensive expertise in theory and methods
in these different subfields of language acquisition. Each lecture
will also be followed by live discussion sessions with experts in the
field.

STRUCTURE: The activities will develop in an online format that will
combine synchronous (live) and asynchronous (pre-recorded) events in
order to encourage the participation of students and researchers in
their time zone.

When registering, participants will be asked to choose two streams.
However, everyone is welcome to attend more than two streams, if
desired. Participants will also be able to take part in live practical
sessions and networking events.

Additionally, several universities will provide venues for local hubs,
where participants can go and attend the online events together.

More information about the schedule and local hubs can be found on our
website.
Minimum Education Level: No Minimum

Special Qualifications:
WHO CAN PARTICIPATE: Students at all levels (BA – PhD) and early
career researchers from all regions, but particularly Sub-Saharan
Africa, South and Southeast Asia, and South and Central America, are
encouraged to participate. There are no prerequisites in terms of
specific knowledge or skills.

Deaf and hard-of-hearing students are encouraged to apply, as we will
try our best to provide International Sign Language interpreters in as
many streams as possible. All the lectures are subtitled and closed
captions can be provided during the tutorials and discussions.

Description:
 AIM: The second truly global /L+/ summer/winter school on language
acquisition aims to promote knowledge about language acquisition and
establish a global network of collaboration between researchers and
students. Students will have the opportunity to learn about current
theories and controversies in first language acquisition, as well as
about basic experimental and analytical methods to implement in their
research studies.



MOTIVATION: Although the ability to use language is universal in human
cultures, there is a long-standing debate as to whether language
develops in similar ways or whether it varies across populations and,
if so, why. This debate would benefit from more studies including a
variety of languages. However, less than 5% of published studies deal
with acquisition in non-European languages. This gap is exacerbated by
the fact that many talented students, teachers and researchers in
underrepresented areas do not have access to specialist literature,
research equipment, or international collaborative networks. The
online /L+/ International summer/winter school on language acquisition
aims at contributing to reducing this gap.
