Conference on Scholarly Teaching and SoTL in Linguistics

该项目旨在通过在本科生语言学课程中培养学术教学能力来服务于国家利益。语言学学术教学和教学学术会议(SOTL)将是此类会议的第一次。参与者将更好地理解循证教学实践，并协作确定语言学可以帮助更广泛地改进本科生STEM教学的方法。教授本科生语言学的教师以及对本科生教学感兴趣的研究生将被邀请参加会议。三个主要问题将指导会议：(1)作为一门学科可以遵循哪些战略步骤来提升循证教学方法的使用以及SOTL工作作为语言学中学术工作的地位？(2)语言学教师如何在他们的课堂和学科中促进正义、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科学的教学提供信息？该项目旨在通过在本科语言学课程中建设学术教学能力来服务于国家利益。为期两天的会议将增进对语言学教学状况的了解，并将支持创建和传播新的SoTL学术。实现这一目标的关键是纳入来自不同分支学科和不同机构背景的教师。这次会议有可能通过允许学者创建和传播新的SOTL学术并更好地了解语言学本科教学的状况来推动语言教育学和语言学学科的发展。通过以绝地为中心的对话和工作会议，这次会议旨在探索语言学教学中目前可能存在的把关和障碍，以及不同背景如何塑造语言学课程。该项目的影响将通过在会议之前、期间和之后的一系列参与者调查进行评估。NSF IUSE：EHR计划支持研究和开发项目，以提高STEM教育对所有学生的有效性。该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的智力优势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.
