As part of @Carleton_U 5th Annual Inclusion Week, students in LING/ALDS 3604 Communication Differences II course are organizing an information fair, to showcase what they have learned about neurodiversity, particularly in relation to higher education.

Fall term 2023 starts tomorrow and we can't wait to see you!!!!! To our new undergraduate and graduate students, we look forward to welcoming you to Carleton at orientation today. Check your emails for details :)

Call for papers is now out for: Multidisciplinary Approaches in Language Policy and Planning 2024: Diversities, Discourses, and Digitalization. Will I see you in Ottawa next June? carleton.ca/lpp/call-for-p…

Thrilled & honored that @bcbl_ will be hosting #ISB15 in Donostia-San Sebastián in the beautiful Basque Country from June 9-13 in 2025 🤩 More info soon! @ISB14MQ #ISB14

@Clara_Kunst @ISB14MQ Thank you! I look forward to chatting more this week and beyond!!

@TSorensonDuncan @ISB14MQ She presented data showing a smaller average vocabulary size of autistic children's L2 compared to that of neurotypical children. However, individual analyses revealed that autistic children actually performed at all levels.

Just watched a great talk by @TSorensonDuncan on why we can't understand #bilingual language development in #autism by only comparing group averages. #ISB14 @ISB14MQ

@LinguistAiT I am at a very interesting keynote @ISB14MQ. Check out the art that Maki Kubota just shared. nytimes.com/2022/09/17/opi…

Who do I know who will be attending #ISB14? Are you going virtually or in person?

Last day of #ACLACAAL2023. I'm presenting at 9:30 (oral language development in French immersion, under Donnelly in the program) and at 11:15 (bilingualism, autism and parents' experiences with language supports). Both in RS123. Hope to see you there!!

I am at @ACLA_CAAL this weekend! Will I see you? (To my non @ACLA_CAAL Toronto people, I'm so sorry to miss you this trip, I didn't give myself enough room in my travel plans for socializing outside of the conference this time, sorry!)

@MmeLockhartLDSB @NessyLearning Congratulations!! Well-deserved!!!

With my heart full of solidarity, I am presenting to you the story of Mustafa, our 7th student in my UofT L'IMAGE Project. Please read Mustafa's story to learn more about language and neurodiversity. Read the rest here: lingcomics.com/mustafa-neurod…

BAM! Starts today :) Looking forward to a weekend of sharing ideas!! psych.ok.ubc.ca/about/news-eve…

I'm taking the scenic route on my way to BAM (Bilingualism and Multilingualism) at UBC Okanagan. Will I see you there?

This PD workshop might be of interest to some of you educators out there in the twitterverse :) Multilingual Special Education Virtual Symposium: Perspectives and Practices to Transform Learning Landscapes. paridad.us/multilingualsp…

@LinguistAiT @CanLangMuseum This is fantastic! Congratulations!!

One of my L’IMAGE comics is a part of the “Chinese Languages in Canada” exhibit at the @CanLangMuseum! How cool is that??! If you’re in Toronto, you can go see the exhibit until the end of June 😄

If you haven't done so already, sign up for our newsletter! It usually contains research updates and news of our students' successes. Yesterday, we introduced you to a new neighbor! So cute!!! carleton.ca/slals/2023/wha…

When the end of term mountain feels a little insurmountable (but of course it will get done, it always does), a quick walk to look for the signs of spring is a good place to start.

@CarlaHudsonKam @AcademicMamas I was going to send you a message to say I could, but then I remembered that I no longer have a child in this age window and that kinda hit me hard :P

Any @AcademicMamas out there able to help out a fellow #AcademicMama?

Please help us out by retweeting this!

I haven't watched the interview, but if she really suggested neurodivergent kids don't mask, yikes. They do and it's exhausting!
