摘要

摘要我们描述了我们通过视频会议为小学生带来语言科学的演讲嘉宾。通过使用虚拟背景和引导式发现学习，我们有效地让7岁以下的儿童参与语言科学概念的深入探索。我们分享指导我们演讲的核心原则，并描述了我们的两项外联活动，语音侦探和双语谷仓。我们报告了157名小学生的简短调查数据，显示他们觉得我们的演讲很有趣，很有教育意义。虽然我们转向虚拟外联的动机是新冠肺炎-19大流行，但它使我们能够接触到地理位置不同的受众，我们建议虚拟演讲嘉宾仍然是一种可行和有效的公共外联方法。

Taking language science to zoom school: Virtual outreach to elementary school students

Abstract We describe guest speaker presentations that we developed to bring language science to elementary school students via videoconference. By using virtual backgrounds and guided discovery learning, we effectively engage children as young as 7 years in in‐depth explorations of language science concepts. We share the core principles that guide our presentations and describe two of our outreach activities, Speech Detectives and Bilingual Barnyard. We report brief survey data from 157 elementary school students showing that they find our presentations interesting and educational. While our pivot to virtual outreach was motivated by the Covid‐19 pandemic, it allows us to reach geographically diverse audiences, and we suggest that virtual guest speaker presentations will remain a viable and effective method of public outreach.
