LSA Video Archive

Submission Guidelines

We invite all LSA members to submit videos to be included in the archive. Contributions from student TA's as well as faculty are welcome.

Any topic on language is appropriate. We suggest adapting whatever has proven most successful in introductory class presentations, but we encourage linguists to take advantage of the medium to prepare graphics and illustrations that go beyond usual classroom style. To appeal to this non-captive audience, presentations should be simple in concept and attractive to the eye.

TO SUBMIT YOUR CONTRIBUTION:

FORMAT: You may send in a tape (VHS, mini-DV, or Digital 8). Or if you can digitize your video, you may submit it as a Quicktime movie (.mov) on a CD-ROM or a ZIP disk. (PC or Mac are both OK.)

MAIL IT TO: Dr. Sean Hendricks, LSA Video Archive Director, Department of Language Education, 125 Aderhold Hall, University of Georgia, Athens, GA 30602-7123.

SEND WITH your video, a signed consent form . This is obligatory.

IF YOUR VIDEO INCLUDES OTHER PEOPLE, such as students in a class, or language informants, you are advised to create a consent form for those people to sign, giving you their permission to distribute the video. You should keep these forms. Please check with your university or institution to find out whether they require any additional procedures for participant
protection.
