Student Showcase (Language Matters)

May 8, 2019

This episode features student-produced stories from the Duke University Social Science Radio Workshop. All of the stories highlight language as a force in everyday life. We explore how we learn language, why our pronunciation matters, how we handle challenging language online, and ways in which the stories we tell about patient illness affect the care they receive.
