Grammar<br>
<br>
The English Department at the Chemnitz University of Technology is
looking for a graduate (linguistics/languages/teaching/...) with good
Internet-computing skills to join our research project as soon as
possible. Information on the project "Learner Behaviour in the
Internet Grammar" can be found following this link<br>
http://www.tu-chemnitz.de/InternetGrammar/<br>
The position would be initially for one year with payment on the Bat
IIa/2 (Ost) scale and the salary level dependent on age and
experience.<br>
<br>
What is the Internet Grammar?<br>
We are building a web-based grammar-learning environment, for advanced
learners of English. We use material from a variety of corpora,
including our own English-German Translation Corpus, to provide
learning material and exercises.<br>
<br>
Your tasks would be:<br>
(a) to help extend the functionality of the grammar, both for users
and researchers, through the development of new features and the
improvement of existing ones;<br>
(b) to assist with the extraction and analysis of learner data;<br>
(c) to maintain the existing structures, which involve html documents,
cgi scripts, corpus search facilities and interactive animations, as
well as conventional elements of a web-site.<br>
<br>
Qualifications:<br>
You will have a degree in a relevant subject and be able to
show<br>
possession of the necessary software skills - such as cgi, perl
or<br>
javascript, in addition to html - or a willingness to acquire
them<br>
very rapidly. You should also have an interest in the use of the
Web<br>
and corpora for language teaching and learning. You should
enjoy<br>
working in a team and value the opportunity to help with the
further<br>
development of our project. The working language of the project
is<br>
English, so fluency would be a definite advantage.<br>
<br>
Working in Chemnitz?<br>
Apart from the satisfaction of helping to see an exciting
research<br>
project to its completion, you would have the advantage of a<br>
stimulating university environment in a city which is growing
and<br>
changing every day.<br>
<br>
Please email your CV and covering letter as soon as possible,
preferably by July 16, to:<br>
