Tom Roeper teaches at Dutch summer school

Tom Roeper taught a course in the Dutch LOT summer school in June at the University of Groningen (which he invited Bart Hollebrandse to co-teach) on recursion in acquisition.  It brought together results from English, Brazilian languages, Japanese, Dutch, German, Romanian, and Hungarian and recent work on children’s math abilities and recursive possessives.  20 students from Holland, Germany, Serbia, the US and China attended.  “It was lots of fun.”
