Linguistics Topics for Searches 

For your assignment, locate a minimum of twenty article titles (papers from journals; papers in edited collections; unpublished manuscripts) that are directly relevant to a topic of your choice. Titles may not include book-length works, inaccessible manuscripts, or papers from conferences. Choose any topic that interests you as long as it has my explicit approval, or choose a topic from the list below. Many of the listed topics are too broad and will have to be narrowed as your search proceeds.

Type a bibliography of these titles in APA style. I will grade the bibliography on the relevance of the articles to your topic (50%) and  on the details to APA style (50%). Include your topic in the title of your bibliography.

If you do not understand your topic, use one of the sources for background information or one of the dictionaries to help you to understand it (see Bibliography of Reference Resources for Linguistics/SLA). Do not attempt to do a bibliographic search if you do not understand the topic!
