MEDAL workshop: Designing questionnaires and CDIs with Katie Alcock

In the upcoming workshop, senior lecturer Katie Alcock from Lancaster University will discuss developing Communicative Development Inventories (CDIs) for a new language. We will also touch on the development of image vocabulary tests for new languages and cultures. We deal with the process from the initial vocabulary selection to validation, standardisation and data sharing through archives. 

Katie specialises in the cognitive development of language, especially the individual differences in the context of culture and language, as well as neurotypical and neurodiverse children. 

The workshop suits participants who have started or are interested in developing CDIs or other linguistic assessments. Participants are also welcome to share their case studies!

12:00-13:20 part one

13:20-13:40 pause
