Below are some examples from our year 2 Psycholinguistics module.  This is Professor Chris Hall’s lecture on the neuropsychology of sign languages, and below, a screenshot of his ‘Psychoboard’, a tool for engaging students in discussion on the module.  
 
Please remember that this module is aimed at students at the end of their second year of study, about to go into their final year, so it’s OK not to understand much of the content.

Before being appointed as Head of Learning, Teaching and Student Experience in the Business School, I was Head of Programme for English Language and Linguistics at YSJ for seven years. I have been teaching for 14 years, specialising in phonetics and phonology, and I still teach on the ELL programme. I'm specifically interested in regional variation and children's acquisition of their accent. I have just started a PhD in phonological acquisition at the University of York. My background in learning and teaching is that I was awarded an University (college at the time) fellowship in 2005, for my work embedding technical skills into teaching. I then became Senior Teaching Fellow for the Business School in 2010 which was connected to my work exploring the potential of new technologies to e-marking and feedback, with Mark Dransfield. I'm also a mentor and assessor for the University's dialogic route to HEA fellowship.
