Having a good ear is integral to nativelike L2 pronunciation attainment. My team has developed a novel online training paradigm to enhance this auditory aptitude! Call for participants, native speakers of Mandarin Chinese. £25 remuneration. Please share with your colleagues :)

#L2WRSeminar @juditkormos discusses the complex relationships between individual differences and suggests avenues for future research. She also highlights the useful role that technologies such as keystroke logging may play in raising learners' awareness of the writing process.

What temporal features affect listener-based judgements of fluency? To find out, you can now read our OPEN ACCESS paper with @juditkormos (@LAEL_LU ) and @TakumiUchihara in The Modern Language Journal @WileyGlobal doi.org/10.1111/modl.1…

We truly appreciate that our study is now open to everyone. As your appetizer, our brief Twitter poster tells you what we've done in the study;) cup.org/2Q7gwSY

Announcing the @BAAL CUP online seminar in #Research Synthesis in #AppliedLinguistics, 10-11 June 2021. I'm delighted to be presenting alongside Luke Plonksy & @TaliaIsaacs. Check out the programme & #CFP here: researchsynthesisseminar.weebly.com/programme.html #evidencesynthesis #AcademicTwitter #PhDchat

Thanks @sinwangchong for organising & @__BAAL @CambUP_LangLing for supporting this interdisciplinary e-event. Good representation from @IOE_London @UCLAppliedLing @EPPICentre. If you conduct #evidencesynthesis research in #appliedlinguistics, do consider submitting an abstract

The presenter in the next meeting (12.00-13.00 GMT+0, 3rd of March) is our own PhD student, Bunya Suzuki. He will share his ongoing PhD project looking at language classroom from a sociocultural perspective, using a linguistic ethnography approach.
