The tenth international Theoretical Issues in Sign Language Research (TISLR) conference will be held on September 30 and October 1-2, 2010 at Purdue University. It is co-directed by Dr. Ronnie Wilbur and Dr. Diane Brentari. Sign language linguists will share their latest research in all areas of linguistics related to sign language structure and use. A special theme of TISLR 10 is "Research Methodologies in Sign Language Linguistics". This theme provides an opportunity for researchers to explain and discuss diverse qualitative and quantitative research methods for studying the world's sign languages. Just as technology has affected the field of linguistics generally, advances in technologies and software have made it possible to analyze sign language data more effectively and to share data electronically. The theme is reflected in the choice of plenary speakers and the construction of special sessions. Two of the invited speakers are Deaf linguists. The work presented at TISLR is basic research, but it has an impact on areas of applied linguistics and curriculum development for sign language studies at all levels. In addition to their contributions to the conference theme, the Deaf plenary speakers serve as role models for other Deaf students and professionals. They encourage other Deaf people to seek higher education degrees and to participate in, and conduct, research in the sign languages that they know so well. In all sessions of the conference, an innovative communication policy will be implemented. TISLR 10 will actively encourage all participants who can present their talks in American Sign Language (ASL) to do so. A committee of Deaf and hearing individuals who have experience teaching and presenting in ASL will be available to help individuals who have the potential to present in ASL but have not done so to date. Since this change in communication policy toward direct communication is one that was requested by Deaf colleagues, it is expected that this policy will make sign language linguistics more accessible and more attractive to the Deaf Community at all levels.

第十届国际手语研究理论问题（TISLR）会议将于2010年9月30日和10月1日至2日在普渡大学举行。它由Ronnie Wilbur博士和Diane Brentari博士共同指导。手语语言学家将分享他们在与手语结构和使用相关的语言学所有领域的最新研究。TISLR 10的一个特别主题是“手语语言学的研究方法”。这一主题为研究人员提供了一个解释和讨论研究世界手语的各种定性和定量研究方法的机会。正如技术对语言学领域产生了普遍影响一样，技术和软件的进步也使得更有效地分析手语数据和以电子方式共享数据成为可能。这一主题体现在全体会议发言人的选择和特别会议的安排上。两名受邀演讲者是聋人语言学家。在TISLR提出的工作是基础研究，但它对各级手语研究的应用语言学和课程开发领域产生了影响。除了对会议主题的贡献外，聋人全体会议的发言者还为其他聋人学生和专业人士树立了榜样。他们鼓励其他聋人寻求更高的教育学位，并参与和进行他们非常熟悉的手语研究。在会议的所有届会上，将执行一项创新的传播政策。TISLR 10将积极鼓励所有可以用美国手语（ASL）进行演讲的参与者这样做。一个由有ASL教学和演示经验的聋人和听力人员组成的委员会将帮助有潜力在ASL中演示但迄今尚未这样做的人。由于这种直接沟通的交流政策的变化是聋人同事的要求，预计这一政策将使手语语言学更容易获得，对各级聋人社区更具吸引力。
