Group Projects

A wide range of projects can be undertaken for the group project. In the past group projects have included literature reviews and original research projects, including an experimental project on regular/irregular morphology in children and adults, a self-paced reading experiment on processing dative and double-object constructions, and projects on the perception of Arabic and Korean speech sounds by non-native speakers. You can choose a topic of your own invention, or you can choose from a list of possible topics that will be made available. All projects should be discussed with and approved by the instructor.

Groups for the group projects will be assigned after the first couple of weeks of the semester. In general, the groups will consist of a mix of graduate and undergraduate students. A brief in-class report (5 minutes) of the chosen topic will be given in early October, with a longer preliminary report (15 minutes) in late October. A second in-class presentation (20 minutes) will be given in early December, and the final project write-up will be due on the Tuesday of finals week.
