SUMMARY:Teachers as Scholars: Conversations about Language: Questionin
 g Common Beliefs- December 5 & 12, 2016
DESCRIPTION:TITLE: Teachers as Scholars: Conversations about Language:
  Questioning Common Beliefs DATE: December 5 & 12, 2016 TIME: 8:30-3:3
 0 LOCATION: Montclair State University - University Hall, ADP Center R
 oom 1145 INSTRUCTOR: Dr. Alice Freed  Many people, educated people in 
 particular, think of themselves as fairly knowledgeable about language
 . Indeed, human speakers know a great deal about their own language si
 mply based on using it from their earliest years to the end of their l
 ives. But do people’s assumptions and beliefs correspond to what mod
 ern linguistics has discovered? That question will be the central focu
 s of these two seminars. We will examine a range of shared ideas about
  language and speech and we will explore what linguists report. For ex
 ample, is it true that animals have communication systems comparable t
 o those of humans? Do only some people have accents? Are technology an
 d the younger generation ruining English? Do women talk more than men?
  In short, the seminars will consider a variety of commonly held (mis)
 beliefs about language and learn what linguistics (the scientific stud
 y of human language) can contribute to the discussion.\nTO REGISTER, C
