Please see below for the Call for Papers which can also be found via this <https://easychair.org/cfp/ALC17>EasyChair <https://easychair.org/cfp/ALC17> link. Arizona Linguistics Circle 17 Collaborative work in Linguistics: Communities and Societies University of Arizona Tucson, Arizona October 27 to 29, 2023 Keynote Speakers: TBA Call for Papers Submissions We are pleased to invite talk proposals for Arizona Linguistics Circle 17 (ALC 17) <https://sites.google.com/view/arizonalinguisticscircle17/home?authuser=3>. ALC 17 is an annual graduate student-run conference held at the University of Arizona. Our goal is to foster a deeper appreciation for linguistics while providing a healthy environment for academic discussion, especially as it concerns graduate student research. The theme of this yearâs conference is Collaborative work in Linguistics, that is the ways in which we have worked to adapt to the unique challenges of a pandemic, found new ways to conduct research remotely, and made ethical considerations in using different modalities. However, abstracts from all areas of linguistics are welcome and encouraged. This year, we plan to conduct a hybrid conference, with both in-person and remote aspects (see Covid contingency) Abstract Guidelines: - Abstract may not exceed 500 words (not including keywords, references, figures, and tableaux) - Presentations will consist of 20-minute talks with 10-minute Q&A - Authors are limited to one individual and one joint abstract (not including workshop submissions) - Only anonymized submissions will be accepted - Abstract submission deadline Friday, September 1, 2023 Abstract submission is via EasyChair <https://easychair.org/cfp/ALC17>. For questions regarding abstract submission, please contact the abstract review manager at [email protected]. Notification of acceptance will be sent in late August. Proceedings Presenters will be invited to submit their paper for publication in Coyote Papers <https://coyotepapers.sbs.arizona.edu/>, the conference proceedings for ALC. Call for Workshop Submissions We are also inviting proposals for one- to two-hour long workshops on the theme of Collaborative work in Linguistics within the realm of experimentation, fieldwork, and data collection. Example workshops include, but are not limited to, improving sound quality in remote fieldwork, getting the most from online crowdsourcing or experimentation platforms, setting up remote speech collection experiments, and more. Workshop submissions from students are especially welcome. Workshop abstracts may not exceed 500 words and must include a title, detailed description (topic, format, length, and content), technical prerequisites (hardware, software, or platforms), applicant's areas of expertise, and why the workshop would be of interest to ALC attendees. Workshop abstracts are submitted on EasyChair and do not count towards the limit on paper abstract submissions. Authors of accepted workshops will be offered modest honoraria. Covid contingency Our plan is to enjoy an in-person conference. However, we might consider a hybrid conference, such that presenters will have the option to present in-person or remotely. This way, both domestic and international presenters will have the opportunity to deliver their presentations regardless of the Covid situation or vaccine availability of their location. We will also have a contingency plan to move the conference to a virtual format if Arizona is undergoing a significant Covid outbreak at the time of the conference. Please let us know if you have any questions via email: [email protected]. We look forward to sharing more information with you over the coming months as we prepare for ALC 17. Attentively, JesĂșs E. GonzĂĄlez Franco (ALC 17 co-chair) -- Dr Heather Froehlich w // http://hfroehli.ch t // @heatherfro
