The LRC “I’d Like to Know More About .. Workshop”

Please plan to join the Language Research Centre on Monday, November 10 (Reading Day) between 9:00 a.m. and 2:30 p.m. for our fourth annual “I’d like to know more about …” workshop. The goal of the workshop is to provide students, established researchers, and members of the LRC community with an introduction to new areas and practical tools for enabling research. This year’s workshop is an introduction to 3 software programs (Open Sesame, LingSync and LaTeX) that are incredibly useful to linguistics and language researchers in their work. The researchers and topics include: 9:00-10:30am – Johannes Knaus – Open Sesame, an open-source application for designing psycholinguistic studies. Please download Opensesame onto your device and bring it to the workshop – see link for details. 10:45am-12:15pm – Joel Dunham (LingSync, a suite of open-source web-based tools for collaborative linguistic fieldwork and documentation) 1:00-2:30pm – Dennis Storoshenko (LaTeX, a free typesetting system with customized modules for formatting linguistic data and diagrams) Lunch will also be served. If you’d like to attend any of the workshops, please respond to lrc@ucalgary.ca. Please let us know by November 1 which of the workshops you’d like to attend and whether or not you’d like to join us for lunch.
