Description:
The Franco-German University (FGU) is funding and coordinating the Basque Summer Tutorial in Language Documentation. The tutorial is a formative workshop, oriented to master and doctoral students, as well as other
interested practitioners in language documentation. The workshop combines training related to the conceptual, technical, and ethical issues raised by the practice in language documentation, specific courses on the Basque language, and actual fieldwork in-situ. It includes a hands-on training in ELAN, Praat and Audacity. Access to the field, organized by the research lab IKER (
www.iker.cnrs.fr), will allow students to carry out original research work based on a personal project that they will have proposed to the workshop organizers as part of the preliminary conditions for inscription. The lab proposes to the interested researchers a network of bascophone informants right at the terrain.
