The Centre for Advanced Studies in Language and Communication (CASLC), an interdisciplinary centre led by the Department of Language and Linguistic Science and the Department of Sociology, will be leading a CPD course this year from their suite of Conversation Analysis courses for professionals and researchers. This year’s course will focus on the phonetics of talk-in-interaction.

Phonetics of Talk-in-Interaction (June  17-19, online), taught by Richard Ogden and Marina Cantarutti

This online three day short course will focus on the phonetics of talk-in-interaction. The course is intended for researchers in Conversation Analysis at all career stages who are interested in expanding their methodological toolkit to observe, describe, transcribe, and analyse phonetic detail in interaction.

The course will enable participants to:

• Learn some of the basic linguistic terminology for the phonetic/prosodic description of speech.
• Describe conversational speech in more technical terms.
• Find out how to provide suitable evidence to illustrate some phonetic/prosodic phenomena.
• Identify and describe linguistic phenomena and apply these to an interactional phenomenon in data sessions. 
• Network with colleagues from other organisations who share an interest in phonetics.
