Application of research design into teaching : "New methods in typological approaches to language contact"

The GramAdapt research team members are designing and teaching a course at the University of Helsinki in the fall period 2021. "New methods in typological approaches to language contact" offers a hands-on approach to a comparative approach to language contact. The first lecture was held 8th of September and the course runs until 15th of December.

It's a one of kind of course that's based directly on the outcomes of the ERC project. It's on four parts and it's a combination of linquistic and sociolinguistic investigations. Each unit is taught by a different team member based on their expertise on the project. The course offers a cutting edge approach in combining linguistic typology to sociolinguistics through the topic of language contact.

We are very exited that we can provide fresh research-based teaching to our students and learn together with them about the world's linguistic diversity.
