The Annual Linguistics Pedagogy Lecture will be be given by Michal Temkin Martínez, Associate Professor of Linguistics at Boise State University, Director of the Mary Ellen Ryder Linguistics Lab, Faculty in Residence at the Honors College, and Associate Editor of the Teaching Linguistics section of Language, a Journal of the Linguistic Society of America. All are welcome!
Abstract: In linguistics, as in most academic fields, inquiry and intellectual curiosity play an important role in the development of research and the advancement of the discipline. While inquiry-based teaching and mentorship of student-centered work is crucially deployed in the training of graduate students, pedagogical approaches to undergraduate education remain largely instructor-focused and lecture-based, especially in introductory courses. In this talk, I will discuss Inquiry-Based Learning (IBL) and its history in education and illustrate how I incorporated it into how I teach an undergraduate course in phonetics and phonology.
The talk will be held in 140 Cunz Hall. A reception will follow in 103 Oxley Hall.
