We're excited to re-launch the journal "Innovations in Linguistics Education", a forum for evidence-based research in the scholarship of teaching and learning (SoTL) in linguistics! We open for submissions in January 2026. journals.ed.ac.uk/innovations/

Anyone here going to Interspeech and wants to do a student a big favor? He was accepted & paid, but ultimately cannot leave the U.S. due to ongoing fascism (he’s on a visa). They will pull his paper if he can’t find anyone to present it for him. DM if you’re attending & may be able to help!

New article by Lex Konnelly, Jason Siefken, Pocholo Umbal, and me: "Are writing questions in math fair?" scholarworks.iu.edu/journals/ind... Main take-aways: Yes, math questions that require written explanatory prose seem to be fair, with the right questions, rubrics, and grader training.

Ok I will admit that I was VERY hesitant to get on a new social media platform. I already have like 6 and honestly the internet isn't that fun these days, but I have to admit I'm really enjoying Bluesky! Please consider sharing this post to help me grow my Bluesky audience to match the rest!

I don’t know what to say today, but fortunately I gave some answers in this that I stand by. glaad.org/nicole-maine...

Hey! I'm teaching "Linguistics of Sign Languages" at the Linguistics Society of America's Summer Institute this summer (w/ Ryan Lepic). There are going to be so many great classes and instructors. I'd appreciate if you'd share this and send good students our way! center.uoregon.edu/LSA/2025/pro...

Teaching in Linguistics Community of Practice (TiLCoP) Canada has joined Bluesky! Find us at: bsky.app/profile/tilc... We've been a bit quiet on social media after taking a much needed rest from publishing the 2nd edition of Essentials of Linguistics essentialsoflinguistics.ca.

Just got notice that our co-authored "Are writing questions in math fair?" is finally in the production pipeline for Journal of the Scholarship of Teaching and Learning! Main research Q: Are writing questions ("explain…", etc.) in math fair for students across different linguistic backgrounds?

Thanks for following us on Bluesky! We’re the official resistance team for the National Park Service.

Given the new surge of migration here from the b𝕏rd app, I guess I should make my first real post. I'm Nathan, a linguistics professor in Toronto. Keywords for me: boardgames, gay, science, natural lands, travel, superheroes, sci-fi/fantasy. I don't post much, but who knows what the future holds?
