BACKGROUND INFORMATION

The Acquisition Sketch Project is an initiative to increase diversity in the languages for which we have information about acquisition patterns (https://acquisition-sketch.phil-fak.uni-koeln.de). We provide detailed guidelines for creating an acquisition sketch based on five hours of data, and provide support through bimonthly online meetings and personal consultation.

Currently, we are stepping our way through the topics in the Sketch Acquisition Manual (https://nflrc.hawaii.edu/ldc/sp28-the-acquisition-sketch-project/). This meeting covers Section 2.2.3 of Part 1 of the Manual (Archiving) and Sections 3.1-3.2 of Part II of the Manual (Data Overview).

The session will also be uploaded to our YouTube channel, where you can find the recordings of the other sessions as well: https://www.youtube.com/@AcquisitionSketchProject.
