During one part of this module, the focus will be on research literature concerning developmental language disorders related to second language acquisition. Similarities and differences between the (second) language learning of typical children and children having language problems will be looked at by means of theoretical and applied literature on the topic. In the second part of the course, students will learn to work with and make analyses of spontaneous speech data coming from the Child Language Data Exchange System – CHILDES. Preferably the data come from children learning more than one language and having language problems and, if possible, from the same linguistic background as the student. If those conditions cannot be met, analyses of language from monolingual children (both typical and having a language problem) are preferred. Knowledge of working with CLAN and CHILDES can be used for the final thesis. |

18 | Language Technology Project | LIX025M05 |
In this project-based course, students are going to work on a natural language processing challenge. A challenge is a practical task in NLP related to a particular research topic. The task usually comes with data-sets for training, as well as a precise evaluation metric. The intention is that students familiarize themselves with a selected research topic, implement a solution and present the outcome critically in a term paper. The course is a mix of lectures, exercises and project-based work. The focus of this class is on deep learning (neural networks) for NLP. |

People with brain tumors (typically gliomas) and/or epilepsy can undergo language testing during awake brain surgery. This is a multidisciplinary procedure that consists in keeping the patient awake and collaborative during surgery so that language tasks can be administered. At a clinical level, this procedure allows surgical teams to maximize the volume of the lesion they operate on and to minimize chronic language injury (i.e., aphasia). At a cognitive level, this is an excellent opportunity to explore the intricacies of how language is processed in the brain. In this course we explore: the origins and relevance of this technique; types of tasks used before/after and during surgery; language impairments that patients have; and some of the relations between the awake brain surgery literature and other aphasiological literature. We also learn about practical aspects of this technique such as how to design, write instructions, and administer/score a test; neurosurgical and anesthesiological issues in clinical practice; and advanced research topics. By the end of the course, you will be equipped to think critically about language testing in awake surgery and be capable to develop new tests and test combinations. We are very fortunate to have invited talks by specialists in the field, both from the University Medical Center Groningen (UMCG) and other Dutch centers, including members of the European Low Grade Glioma Network (ELGGN). Also, we have access to what is possibly the only Massive Open Online Course (MOOC) on the topic. |

24 | Methodology & Statistics Ling. Research | LTR002M10 |
This course is regularly attended by Research Master's students and PhD candidates and aims to enable participants to conduct statistical analyses of their data independently in R. The first half of the course follows on the first-semester course “Basic Statistics” and provides an introduction to multivariate statistics and visualization in R. Topics include one-way and factorial ANOVA, (multiple) regression, logistic regression, mixed-effects regression and generalized additive models. There are several R lab sessions in which these analyses are applied. The second half of the course revolves around seminar presentations (and practical sessions) by students on the use and application of various statistical statistical techniques or methodology in (their) research. See the following website for topics presented and discussed in 2004 through 2016: http://ww.let.rug.nl/nerbonne/teach/rema-stats-meth-seminar/.

25 | Multichannel Management | LIX023M05 |
Het college Multichannel Management introduceert verschillende theorieën die iets zeggen over kanaalkeuze, en wetenschappelijke studies die factoren aangeven die hierin een rol spelen. Het gaat vervolgens in op de vraag hoe theorieën over kanaalkeuze kunnen worden benut bij concrete vragen vanuit de maatschappij. Er is in dit college sprake van twee toepassingsgerichte foci. Een eerste toepassingsgerichte focus is de ‘multichannel management’ in de communicatie waarvoor overheidsinstanties in Nederland zich geplaatst zien, als er sprake is van een crisis. Sociale media nemen een belangrijke plaats in in deze media-mix. Sociale media beïnvloeden het werk van crisiscommunicatiedeskundigen. Burgers zijn nl. ook zelf actief op sociale media, bij crises. Overheidsinstanties zijn geïnteresseerd geraakt in de burgerbeleving na een crisis, en vragen zij zich af hoe ze deze het beste kunnen monitoren. Het monitoren van de burgerbeleving via sociale media vormt de tweede toepassingsgerichte focus van dit college. |

28 | Ni&L | LTC024M10 |
The central question of this module is what neuroimaging can tell us about how language is represented in the brain. First, an introduction will be given to the modern techniques of neuroimaging: ERP, PET scanning, and functional MRI scanning. Then older and more recent findings will be discussed and the merits and disadvantages of these techniques will be discussed. The students will visit the Neuro Imaging Center (NIC). By the end of the course, the students need to set up an experiment for testing language processing in their native language. This experiment can be conducted in the final term to meet the requirements for the Master thesis |

29 | ReMa Internship Linguistics EMCL | LTC000M10 |
By doing a research internship, students learn to conduct independent neurolinguistic or clinical linguistic research. Students gain experience, under supervision, in applying specific methods and techniques for neurolinguistic and clinical linguistic research, and are involved in a research project. Typically there are two types of research internships, or a combination of both. A) Students complete a small research project in collaboration with the internship supervisor. Tasks may include: reviewing the relevant literature, designing an experiment, developing materials, collecting and analysing data, presenting results, writing a research report. B) Students participate in daily lab activities and/or learn special research techniques or analyses. In this case there is no small, dedicated project that is run by the intern. It is possible that an internship leads to a joint presentation of student and supervisor(s) at a national or international conference. Some studies may result in an article in a conference proceedings or journal. Occasionally students decide to connect their subsequent MA thesis to the research that was done during the internship, by extending the scope of investigation. |

32 | Research Training 1 | LTR028M05 |
The aim of this module is to provide the opportunity for students to work under the supervision of an experienced researcher and contribute to the researcher’s project. The goal is for students to get hands-on experience in data collection and data analysis in any or all of its phases. Students may do this module for 5 or 10 ETCS; it is available in every semester.
What it entails: This module may include completing readings or compiling a bibliography, but may not focus solely on a literature review. While it will almost certainly be necessary for the student to gain background knowledge through reading specific texts, the goal of this module is for students to learn to carry out research using a particular methodology and approach to linguistic analysis in the context of the supervisor’s research program.
Not just a research assistant: While this module is intended to also benefit scholars in our faculty, the primary goal is not to provide research assistants to faculty members but to provide research experience to students. Although the student need not participate in all phases of the research, situating the research process in the larger context of theory is a requirement of the experience provided for the student. Students will be evaluated on their work on the project and also a short essay and discussion of the research which illustrates their understanding of the research in terms of its contribution to the field.
Process:
Information about research projects are posted on the ReMa Nestor page; you can find these in a folder labelled ‘Research Training’ on the ‘Content’ tab.
(You may also work with other research supervisors who have not submitted descriptions, if you know a staff member who is doing a project you would be interested in; the point of these project descriptions is simply to improve information flow, not to limit who can supervise research training.)
If you find a project you would like to participate in, contact the supervisor directly to work out the details. Please complete the Research Training form in consultation with the research supervisor, including both of your signatures. Please email this completed form to Nadja Zadorina, the Research Master coordinator, who will enroll you in the module. |
