November 4, 2021 | Public Programs, Exhibitions

This poster was presented at the 2021 NSF AISL Awardee Meeting.

This poster describes a newly funded collaborative project (9/2021) to engage Planet Word visitors in language science research.

  • Engage visitors in domain of science often overlooked in the public imagination (language arts -> language science enthusiasts!)
  • Diversify participants who contribute data to studies
  • Provide training in research & science communication to a diverse group of students across a range of institutions, including MSIs, broadening participation in STEM
  • Lower barrier to entry for other language researchers interested inpublic-facing research.
