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.
