RESEARCH CONNECTIONS
From classroom observation to research questions
Spoken language and interpreting raise questions about multilingual performance, speech analysis and the role of digital tools. The laboratory offers a practical setting in which students and researchers can develop such questions, examine methods and discuss evidence. Specific projects and results will be presented separately when available.
RELATIONSHIP TO ARCTIS
A connected university facility
The laboratory is a distinct VIZJA University facility. Its work is relevant to ARCTIS interests in multilingualism, corpus translation and interpreting studies, and it may support related teaching and research activities. It is not presented as an organisational unit of ARCTIS.
