Speaker Series
Each semester, the Center for Language Acquisition, in conjunction with the Gorski, Spector and Gil Watz sponsored speaker series, brings internationally renowned leading scholars in applied linguistics and related fields to the University Park campus. These individuals present their latest research and are available to meet with Penn State faculty and students.
The Speaker Series Videos page is currently being updated. Below are the videos currently available. These videos require you to install the Apple QuickTime plug-in (this is a free plug-in available here). Each presentation is divided into several clips, each approximately fifteen minutes in length.
(A PDF version of Paula Buttery's presentation on March 25, 2008 is available here.)
