Abstract

This June, nearly 1,200 people converged in Scottsdale to attend the AG Bell 2012 Convention. This biennial event allowed attendees to connect with each other, discover new insights into trends in spoken language acquisition, and be inspired by those around them. And while this event was not specifically focused on research, the underlying motivation for the tips, strategies, and advice provided was evidence-based.
