This course deals with eye-tracking as a method, specifically in the context of visually situated language comprehension. Students will receive an introduction to these topics from the course instructors and will be offered a choice of 3 experiments to work on during the course.
Students will be shown how to design an eye-tracking experiment; how to prepare or modify experiment materials (in German); how to conduct a mini eye-tracking experiment in the laboratory; how to analyze the data, and how to write a brief report. Instruction will be given both on these steps and on how to write the report. At the end of the course students should have a grasp of important issues in experimental design, be able to use an eye-tracker, and know the key steps involved in analyzing eye-tracking data. They will also have learnt how to summarize experimental results. The language of instruction is English.
Knowledge of basic statistics is recommended.
