Linguapolis

Linguapolis - Instituut voor Taal en Communicatie: Onderzoek, Ontwikkeling en Opleidingen

A Toolbox for Design-Based Research

Lecturers are Sven De Maeyer, PhD and Vincent Donche, PhD (Institute for Education and Information Sciences, University of Antwerp).

The course will focus on methodological considerations in designing and conducting empirical research. We will highlight the practical issues involved in the use of qualitative and quantitative research methods. Insight will be given into the most commonly used data-collection techniques such as surveys, interviews, and observation. Further we will analyse how to generate more data-driven conclusions.

The target group are researchers in language learning and teaching who need to investigate user data or results of specific design practices and experiments in a more evidence-based manner. At the end of the course each participant gets a personal consult with the lectures to discuss current research.
The number of participants is limited to 25. Timely registration (or reservation) is therefore necessary.

The third edition of the Linguapolis Summer School can be combined with several other conferences in Europe.
Eurocall 2011 at the University of Nottingham: from 31 August until 3 September
EARLI 2011 at the University of Exeter: from 30 August until 2 September
