ABOUT THIS COMMUNITY

WHAT IS THE SPL-L?

Nancy Hilty

SPLIS-L is the electronic discussion list for the Speech, Pronunciation, and Listening Interest Section of TESOL. Its function is the exchange of information, questions, and answers about instructional techniques, learning challenges, and successes, as well as research findings related to speech, listening, and pronunciation. SPLIS-L, along with the SPLIS newsletter, will also provide information about SPLIS-related issues, projects, and interest section business.

There are 483 members in the discussion group, many of them published authors. The focus is very practical, most often related to teaching issues and questions. No job advertisements or promotion of commercial products is allowed on the list. To join the list, go to the official site of the SPL Interest Section, which will direct you to the TESOL site and lead you through subscription to the list. You must be a TESOL member to join the list. Welcome, and enjoy participating in SPLIS-L.
