Workshopping Research in Progress

About This Event

The Multimodal Communication group brings scholars in diverse fields (applied linguistics, cognitive science, languages, linguistics, literatures, communication and rhetorical studies, psychology) around the shared topic of embodied communication. We will gather to share methods and discuss data, bringing the skills and knowledge of our diverse disciplines to bear on questions of mutual interest. Our featured consultant, Dr. Laura Morett, Assistant Professor with the MizzouForward Initiative in the Department of Speech, Language and Hearing Sciences at the University of Missouri will provide feedback as we workshop data and analyses from research in progress.
