Conference on Scholarly Teaching and SoTL in Linguistics

该项目旨在通过建设本科语言学课程的学术教学能力来服务于国家利益。学术教学和语言学教学奖学金（SoTL）会议将是同类会议中的第一次。参与者将更好地了解基于证据的教学实践，并共同确定语言学可以帮助更广泛地改善本科STEM教学的方法。沿着教授本科水平语言学的教师和对本科教学感兴趣的研究生将被邀请参加会议。三个首要问题将指导会议：（1）作为一门学科，可以采取哪些战略步骤来提升循证教学方法的使用以及SoTL工作作为语言学学术工作的地位？(2)语言学教师如何在课堂和学科中推进正义，公平，多样性和包容性（JEDI）？(3)语言学理论和语言学教学如何为其他学科的教学提供信息？该项目旨在通过建设本科语言学课程的学术教学能力来服务于国家利益。为期两天的会议将促进对语言学教学状况的理解，并将支持新SoTL奖学金的创建和传播。实现这一目标的关键是吸收来自不同分支学科和不同机构背景的教员。该会议有可能通过允许学者创建和传播新的SoTL奖学金来推进语言教学法和语言学学科，并更好地了解语言学本科教学的状况。通过以JEDI为中心的对话和工作会议，本次会议旨在探讨语言学教学中目前可能存在的守门和障碍，以及不同背景塑造语言学课程的方式。该项目的影响将通过一系列参与者调查之前，期间和之后的会议进行评估。NSF IUSE：EHR计划支持研究和开发项目，以提高所有学生的STEM教育的有效性。该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并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，被认为值得支持。

This project aims to serve the national interest by building capacity for scholarly teaching in the undergraduate linguistics curriculum. The conference on Scholarly Teaching and the Scholarship of Teaching and Learning (SoTL) in Linguistics will be the first of its kind. Participants will gain a better understanding of evidence-based instructional practices and collaboratively identify ways in which linguistics can help improve undergraduate STEM instruction more broadly. Faculty teaching linguistics at an undergraduate level along with graduate students interested in undergraduate teaching will be invited to the conference. Three overarching questions will guide the conference: (1) What are the strategic steps that can be followed as a discipline to elevate the use of evidence-based teaching approaches and the status of SoTL work as scholarly work within linguistics? (2) How can teachers of linguistics advance justice, equity, diversity, and inclusion (JEDI) in their classrooms and in the discipline? (3) How can linguistic theory and the teaching of linguistics inform the teaching of other sciences?This project aims to serve the national interest by building capacity for scholarly teaching in the undergraduate linguistics curriculum. The two-day conference will advance the understanding of the state of teaching in linguistics and will support the creation and dissemination of new SoTL scholarship. Pivotal to this goal is the inclusion of instructors from different subdisciplines and different institutional contexts. The conference has the potential to advance linguistic pedagogy and the discipline of linguistics by allowing scholars to create and disseminate new SoTL scholarship and gain a better understanding of the state of undergraduate teaching in linguistics. With JEDI-centered conversations and working sessions, this conference intends to explore gatekeeping and barriers that may currently exist in linguistics instruction and the ways that different contexts shape the linguistics curriculum. The project's impact will be evaluated through a series of participant surveys prior to, during, and following the conference. The NSF IUSE: EHR Program supports research and development projects to improve the effectiveness of STEM education for all students.This 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.
