Step 1: make up your mind about the specialist field you wish to focus on: business, tourism or international communication? You can further restrict the field; for instance, if you choose tourism, you might decide to focus on "online marketing", "customer care" or "sustainable tourism".

Step 2: surf the web for the sources and software you need to include in your report. You may start your search from these websites:

• text sources:

          http://thebigproject.co.uk/
          http://www.world-newspapers.com/

• corpora and software tools:

          David Lee's Corpus-Based Linguistics Links at http://tiny.cc/corpora

Step 3: write your report, checking against the Evaluation Rubric (see the section "Evaluation")

Step 4: submit your report in the Module Two Task forum within the deadline.

Step 5: read the other students' reports to make comparisons with your work and to get ideas; optionally, respond to their postings.

Step 6: read your tutor's feedback and make all necessary changes to improve your work.

Step 7: resubmit your report in the Module Two Task forum, same thread as Step 4.

Sketch Engine for Language Learning

Discover the English language through a billion-word collection of news, scientific papers, Wikipedia articles, fiction, web pages and blogs.

Examples: search for a word or a phrase and get short and meaningful example sentences for it.

Word sketch is a list of words which occur frequently together with the searched word.

Similar words (not only synonyms) are words used in similar contexts visualized with a word cloud.

If anyone is interested in taking a free online course on the use of language corpora to help with L2 error correction in writing, take a look at this 6 hour course from the University of Queensland.

I'm particularly interested in hearing from anyone who might be able to introduce this as part of a teacher training course? Send me a message!

GG=DDL=Word and Phrases COCA

Word and Phrases developed by Mark Davies is based on COCA (Corpus of Contemporary American English). It provides concordances, frequencies in different genres/registers and even definitions of words from WordNet. What is your experience with this tool?

Bringing corpus research into the language classroom

SESSION DESCRIPTION

Presenter(s): 

Jane Templeton

Session details:

In this talk, I present practical and simple tools and techniques to help teachers and learners exploit corpus tools for learning purposes. This involves a shift from the traditional data-driven learning model whose focus is language presentation towards a more learner-centred model aimed at using corpus tools as reference material and training learners to become small-scale independent language researchers.

(BAWE) British Academic Written English Corpus

ABOUT BAWE

The British Academic Written English Corpus (BAWE) was collected as part of the project, 'An Investigation of Genres of Assessed Writing in British Higher Education'. The project was funded by the Economic and Social Research Council. (2004 - 2007 project number RES-000-23-0800). 

The corpus is a record of proficient university-level student writing at the turn of the 21st century. This Excel Spreadsheet contains information about the corpus holdings. A more detailed spreadsheet is available from the Oxford Text Archive. It contains just under 3000 good-standard student assignments (6,506,995 words). Holdings are fairly evenly distributed across four broad disciplinary areas (Arts and Humanities, Social Sciences, Life Sciences and Physical Sciences) and across four levels of study (undergraduate and taught masters level). Thirty main disciplines are represented.

Our free, research-based academic writing materials - ‘Writing for a Purpose’ – are available on the British Council Learn English website.
The development of these materials was funded by the Economic and Social Research Council (ES/J010995/1).

The corpus is available free of charge to researchers who agree to the conditions of use and who register with the Oxford Text Archive. It can also be searched online via the Sketch Engine open site. Please contact Hilary Nesi (h.nesi@coventry.ac.uk) for further information, or if you have any queries or comments relating to the project.

Dear CorpusCALL members and visitors. You might be interested in our site (see link below) which is a database of links to concordances (and some other BAWE outputs) which are designed to be used for giving feedback to students' written work. We welcome comments and new users.

Link: http://bawequicklinks.coventry.domains/?fbclid=IwAR1Tw1kHyeGm0IxvCx_HoAQeugOOCOuU_k2xwxqjxd8eWm8SSIuzA9ppuGw

The BAWE Quicklinks project is based at Coventry University (see our Corpus Linguistics at Coventry site here); the team members are Hilary Nesi, Benet Vincent and Daniel Quinn. This site, a major part of the project, is designed as an aid for teachers who’d like to introduce students to concordances (see example below) that can help raise their awareness of how English works.

All of the concordances are ones which we have retrieved from the British Academic Written English (BAWE) corpus based on what we might call ‘infelicitous’ uses of English found in student assignments – i.e. those that don’t seem quite right in the context. In each case we have tried to retrieve concordance lines that might help lead students to a more ‘felicitous’ means of expression. Once the lines are retrieved from the corpus, it is possible to make links (‘quicklinks’) to the lines which can then be added to student work when providing feedback.

An example of the sort of issue that we are trying to address is the student who writes…

Shulman (1989) quoted that…

… when trying to cite a source, without realising that the verb quote doesn’t really have that-clause complementation. We looked in the BAWE corpus and found some more appropriate instances, which are shown in this link – you can click to view in new tab, but it looks a bit like this:

The point here is to try to focus on issues that commonly come up – by sharing these links we want others to be able to benefit from this work too. It may not be often that a student writes X quoted that, but it seems fair to say that quite a lot of students writing papers in English make mistakes when trying to cite from the literature, and hopefully this link could be useful to point out to them more appropriate usage.

As part of the project, we are trying to make the database of quicklinks we hope will be of use – these links are accessible through the Quicklink directory – Encyclopedia Index Page. Since with time there could be a lot of these, we want to try to make them easy to find. Please browse through, feel free to use these and let us know via the comments options if you have any suggestions. You might first want to watch the screencast on our Directory page.

More updates will follow – including posts on how to embed the links, how to retrieve concordances (using Corpus Query Language) and more.

Have you had a look at BNC Lab? It is an online corpus-based and learner friendly resource, developed at Lancaster University. With BNC Lab, language can be explored in relation to a range of sociolinguistic variables. Ready-to-use pedagogical materials can also be found on the website.
