Class Exercises for Graduate Level Syntax (pedagogy)

In my attempt to get away from lecture based learning, and get more into hands-on fieldwork based learning, I have written a few class exercises for graduate level Syntax and II. I will add more exercises as I write them up. I will also be happy to post exercises written by other people. The exercises are in chronological order.

Syntax I

Practice Tree Drawing (start of semester)

Unergatives versus Unaccusatives

Nominalizations and Implicit Arguments

Proposal Peer Review

Antisymmetry and Cinque 2005

Head Movement

Case Theory

Tree Drawing Contest (announcement)

Tree Drawing Contest (problems)

Tree Drawing Contest (solutions and notes)

Syntax II
