  • As a preparation for your researches for posters or portfolios, we will analyze some transcripts from the CHILDES database.
  • In order to demonstrate how you formulate hypotheses and evaluate them on empirical data extracted from CHILDES (or other sources), I will explain to you what I did in my own Magister Thesis.
