PronSIG: 'Prosody for all the skills: How to integrate the ‘music’ of language into any lesson'

A PronSIG webinar with Joy Mills

Prosody is the “music” of language, including intonation, pitch, and rhythm. While sometimes mentioned in speaking activities, it is often overlooked in language teaching. Growing evidence shows prosody is important on many levels. It plays a major role in listening comprehension, and it is important in sentence processing in reading, even when reading silently!

This webinar will bring you up to date with the current research and give you some ideas of how to integrate prosody instruction and awareness into Listening, Reading, Speaking and Writing lessons and activities.

Joy Mills is currently teaching at Monash College in Melbourne, Australia but has recently finished her MA in Psycholinguistics at the University of York. She is passionate about language and the brain, and especially interested in the interface between prosody and reading. @JoyMillsLing
