Annual REU Site Intersection of Linguistics, Language and Culture Conference

该奖项全部或部分根据2021年美国救援计划法案（公法117-2）资助。NSF REU ILLC 2021年和2022年年会将与位于纽约的Molloy College和CUNY Brooklyn College举办的NSF本科生网站“语言学，语言和文化的交叉点”（ILLC）研究经验的第二个周期相吻合。 这些会议旨在增加新兴研究人员之间的多样性，以及未来语言学和语音语言传播科学研究人员和专业人员开展的项目之间的多样性。 这些项目将包括五个组成部分：㈠由在高等教育中代表性不足的文化、族裔和语言群体的成员开展本科生项目，重点是在其语言/语言多样性方面的新发现，以及基于科学、技术、工程和数学的创新方法和对更广泛影响的解释;（ii）高中生的参与，使他们了解语言学以及与语言学有关的研究领域和专业，在他们进入大学之前; ㈢在组织会议的过程中，增强本科生和高中生，特别是在高等教育中代表性不足的群体的成员的能力，使他们成为新兴的学者和高等教育机构的重要成员; ㈣通过两个互补的平台，在会议期间和会议之后传播会议的口头和海报介绍：公开获取会议记录和视频演示的出版物;（v）通过竞争性地发放旅费和奖金，承认和重视大学和高中的参与和工作。拟议的会议将传播反映美国和世界文化，种族和语言多样性的新发现，并需要推进该领域。 拟议的会议将有三套更广泛的影响，包括（i）临床，教育和技术的影响，从NSF REU ILLC现场研究员和海报主持人进行的项目中出现的结果，（ii）增加研究人员和专业人员在语音-语言-听力-传播科学的劳动力的多样性，（iii）普通民众对语言学重要性的认识增加，事实上，它是一门以STEM为基础的学科，各种专业部门表现出快速增长的语言培训和种族价值，该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并被认为值得通过使用基金会的智力价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估来支持。

This award is funded in whole or in part under the American Rescue Plan Act of 2021 (Public Law 117-2). The NSF REU ILLC annual 2021 and 2022 conferences will coincide with and complement the 2nd Cycle of the NSF Research Experience for Undergraduates Site 'Intersection of Linguistics, Language and Culture' (ILLC) housed by Molloy College, Long Island and CUNY Brooklyn College, both in New York. The conferences aim at increasing diversity among emerging researchers and among the projects undertaken by future researchers and professionals in linguistics and speech-language-communication sciences. They will involve five components: (i) undergraduate projects by members of cultural, ethnic and linguistic groups underrepresented in higher education, with a focus on novel findings in their language/language varieties, and on STEM-based innovative methodologies and explanations of broader impacts; (ii) participation of high school students so that they discover linguistics and the research areas and professions associated with linguistics, before they enter college; (iii) empowerment of undergraduate and high school students, especially members of groups underrepresented in higher education, to become emergent scholars and valued members of higher education institutions in the process of the organization of the conference; (iv) dissemination of the conference oral and poster presentations during and beyond the conference through two complementary platforms: open-access publications of proceedings and video presentations; (v) recognition and valuing of college and high school participation and work through the competitive awarding of travel expenses and prizes. The proposed conferences will disseminate novel findings that reflect the U.S. and world cultural, ethnic and linguistic diversity and that are needed to advance the field. The proposed conferences will have three sets of broader impacts including (i) the clinical, educational and technological implications of the findings that emerge from the projects conducted by the NSF REU ILLC site fellows and the poster presenters, (ii) the increase of diversity of the workforce among researchers and professionals in speech-language-hearing-communication sciences, (iii) the increase of knowledge in the general population of the significance of linguistics, the fact that it is a STEM-based discipline and that various professional sectors exhibiting rapid growth value both linguistic training and the ethnic, cultural and linguistic heritage of minority students from groups underrepresented in higher educationThis award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.
