Unit Outline
A prerequisite to the Research Project, this unit offers advice on the selection and design of the project as well as how the results should be reported. Evaluation of the unit is based on a proposal for the Reseach project to be carried out in semester 2.
Student Projects
In this unit students prepare a project proposal a presentation and an initial version of the literature review for the project to be completed in SLP813. You must contact your prospective supervisor to get more information and also obtain their consent to act as your supervisor. You are required to have made your project choice and to have lined up a supervisor by 30th April, 2005 at the latest.
The project choices are available on the SLP813 web site .
Web Resources
In addition to our own on-line resources, we also maintain a web resources page which contains links to off-site web pages that we have found useful.
Navigating These Pages
To return to the main Linguistics Department web site click on "LINGUISTICS HOME" in the menu bar just above each page's main content. There are several links in that menu bar that will take you to various pages relating to this unit. The "RESOURCE INDEX" link takes you to a page that provides links to a large number of on-line materials relating to Phonetics and Phonology and Speech Science (and to a much lesser extent, some aspects of hearing). The "HELP PAGES" link takes you to help pages that tell you how to install appropriate phonetic fonts (if required), installing a browser that properly supports phonetic fonts, as well as software for playing sound and video files.
