Abstract:

Corpus-aided language pedagogy is one of the central application areas of
corpus methodologies, and a test bed for theories of language and learning.
This volume provides an overview of current trends, offering methodological
and theoretical position statements along with results from empirical
studies. The relationship between corpora and learning is examined from
complementary perspectives - the study of learner language, the didactic
use of corpus findings, and the interaction between corpora and their
users. Reflections on current theory and technology open and close the volume.

With its focus on the learner and the learning setting, Corpora and
Language Learners is addressed to corpus linguists with an interest in
learner language, applied linguists wishing to expand their understanding
of corpora and their pedagogic potential, and language teachers wishing to
critically assess the relevance of work in this field.

This volume grew out of selected presentations at the 5th Teaching and
Language Corpora conference in Bertinoro, Italy.
