Linguistics (LING) 101 -- SPRING 2012 -- SPECIAL 3-WEEK SECTION!
LING 101 introduces many of the central areas of linguistics like
phonetics, phonology, morphology, syntax, and semantics. LING 101 is
the main prerequisite for other courses in Linguistics and is among
the recommended courses for anyone considering future studies in
Speech Pathology and Audiology. (Note that it may not be taken by
students with credit in LING 111.)
We are offering a 3-week compressed offering of LING 101 in the Spring
2012 term that will be taught from May 28 - June 13, 2012. For more
information about our Spring and Summer courses please check the
BearTracks system [beartracks.ualberta.ca] or the Department of
Linguistics website [linguistics.ualberta.ca]
******************************
Linguistics (LING) 102 -- SUMMER 2012
Would you like to learn how language is acquired by children and
second language learners? How it is represented and processed in the
mind/brain? How social factors such as age and gender affect language
use? How and why language changes over time? Methodology and
interpretation of data will also be covered. LING 102 is the course
that addresses these and other intriguing issues in cross-disciplinary
language studies. LING 101 is a pre- or co-requisite for this course,
and it is not to be taken by students with credit in LING 100. For
more information about our Spring and Summer courses please check the
BearTracks system [beartracks.ualberta.ca] or the Department of

Linguistics (LING) 399-B2 -- Winter 2013 -- Interactional Linguistics
This course is an introduction to the dynamic and multi-modal nature
of face-to-face interaction in real-time, situated conversation-or
what speakers and listeners do with their voice and their bodies as
they interact linguistically. Language production and comprehension
during conversation doesn't just involve speaking and hearing, but
also moving and seeing. We will study how utterances are enhanced and
received through the use of gaze, gesture, body posture, facial
expression, and prosody across speakers, registers, and languages.
Topics include transcription of speech and gesture, intonation units,
cues to turn-taking, repair strategies, but most importantly the fact
that spoken language interaction is not just linguistic, but also
physical, psychological, social, and cultural. Prerequisite: LING 101.
