DESCRIPTION:The university workplace is representative of international-is
 ed/-ising workplaces in general\, where different communities\, languages\
 , and cultures coexist. Staff encounter their colleagues’ and students
 ’ accents – of Italian\, of English\, and in my case\, French - and so
 metimes the result is that communication can be quite hard work. Even with
  the best intentions\, sometimes we just cannot understand a speaker. Howe
 ver\, when we think about spoken interactions\, we have to accept that it 
 is not just about how the speaker produces a language\; the actions and sk
 ills of listeners should also be addressed. This flip or change of perspec
 tive begs two questions: can we\, as listeners\, learn to cope better with
  spoken variation? And if so\, how?\n\nTo access this and next events\, yo
 u should create an account on the  H2IOSC Training Environment. Choose the
  course “Language and Accent Discrimination - Online Seminar Series”\,
