Our new series focuses on sketches in progress. In each session, one
or more people will present advances and issues from their ongoing
sketches. This will give us all a chance to see other sketches in
development and discuss questions.
Meetings will be held once per month, on the second Wednesday of the
month. Each session will only be held once. We will alternate times
each month - usually one month at Berlin 9 am and the next month at
Berlin 5 pm.

BACKGROUND INFORMATION
The Acquisition Sketch Project is an initiative to increase diversity
in the languages for which we have information about acquisition
patterns (https://acquisition-sketch.phil-fak.uni-koeln.de). We
provide detailed guidelines for creating an acquisition sketch based
on five hours of data, and provide support through monthly online
meetings and personal consultation.
