Abstract:

My project is concerned with visualizing linguistic phenomena on different levels of discourse and their evaluation with regard to their user-friendliness. I look at ways thematic structure and progression, intonation contours, and vowel quality, among others, can be visualized in meaningful ways. One of my concerns is the qualitative analysis of how learners of language actually use visual teaching materials in order to better understand their role in the language learning context.
