Scientists depend on acquiring new analytical techniques to improve their research abilities and communicate their findings to the public. This Scholars Award project provides a researcher with training in quantitative research, geo-spatial analysis, and data visualization in order to create new tools for understanding and representing linguistic diversity in multilingual communities. This project would broaden participation of underrepresented groups in the sciences by also training undergraduate, graduate, and high school students in ethnographic, linguistic, and spatial mapping and other visual methods. The data from the larger project would also be disseminated to policymakers and educators.Dr. Jonathan Rosa of Stanford University, who has conducted extensive research on contemporary multilingualism focusing on U.S. Latina/o communities, will spend a summer month and a semester at the Smith College Spatial Analysis Lab, where he will obtain the methodological skills necessary to (1) conduct a long-term project combining quantitative and qualitative analyses of community multilingualism; (2) create new visualization tools for linguistic data, including interactive maps, providing a more complex ?view? of linguistic diversity; and (3) train undergraduate and graduate students, as well as community members, in these new research methodologies. The project would advance the fields of linguistic anthropology and linguistic by training the researcher in novel visualization techniques that are on the leading edge for modeling language in society.

科学家依靠获得新的分析技术来提高其研究能力并向公众传达其发现。该学者奖项目为研究人员提供了定量研究，地理空间分析和数据可视化的培训，以创建新的工具，以理解和代表多语言社区的语言多样性。该项目将通过还培训本科，研究生和高中生在人种学，语言和空间映射以及其他视觉方法中培训本科生，研究生和高中生的参与。较大项目的数据也将被传播到决策者和教育者。斯坦福大学的乔纳森·罗莎（Jonathan Rosa）对关注美国拉丁裔/O社区的当代多语言进行了广泛的研究，将在史密斯学院的空间分析实验室度过一个夏季和一个学期，在那里他将获得（1）进行长期项目所必需的方法学技能，以结合定量和合理的社区多语言主义； （2）为语言数据创建新的可视化工具，包括交互式图，提供更复杂的视图？语言多样性； （3）在这些新的研究方法中培训本科生和研究生以及社区成员。该项目将通过培训研究人员的新型可视化技术来推动语言人类学和语言学领域，这些技术在社会中建模语言处于领先地位。
