>       "CORPUS LINGUISTICS FOR KOREAN LANGUAGE LEARNING & TEACHING"
>     SUMMER INSTITUTE
>
> June 30-July 11, 2003
> http://nflrc.hawaii.edu/prodev/CLKor/
>
> Corpus linguistics studies take advantage of the existence of large
> collections of language production (written or spoken language) in order
> to investigate a language. Foreign language pedagogy is now beginning to
> see new possibilities for recent advances in corpus linguistics to improve
> language teaching and learning. Readily available Korean-language corpora
> and easy-to-use tools can now be used on the spot in a language teaching
> context, by teachers and learners without extensive training in
> computational linguistics, and studies of linguistic features can be
> tailored to specific pedagogic context and learning requirements.
>
> The NFLRC Summer Institute workshop "Corpus Linguistics for Korean
> Language Learning and Teaching" will acquaint participants with the basic
> concepts of corpus linguistics, including corpus construction and
> annotation, concordancing, frequency counts and ranks, grammatical
> tagging, and related concepts. Participants will learn how to access
> Korean corpora and how to use the available computer programs for Korean
> corpus analysis. The workshop will outline techniques for the teacher to
> use in materials preparation and curriculum design and for the individual
> learner to use in exploring meaning, structure, and use in Korean. In the
> second part of the workshop, participants will engage in individual
> projects chosen with their own learning goals in mind.
