After the successful 1st symposium that took place in September 2009, the 2nd one is fast coming up at the Centre for Deaf Studies, Bristol, from June 30th to July 2nd.

This second symposium aims at bringing together scholars, researchers and educational practitioners to discuss the ‘documentation’ of sign languages for teaching and learning purposes.

Presenters include: Dr. Onno Crasborn from the Netherlands and Dr Lorraine Leeson from the Republic of Ireland.

For students who register early it’s only £25 (£50 for non-students), though it goes up for late registers.

Full details are available through this website:

I will be there at various stages, most likely on the Saturday, so I hope to see you there!

Steve
