[Corpora-List] corpus of education discourse

[Chris Butler]

Dear Sara,

It all rather depends what you mean by 'education discourse', but you might
find the following of some interest: the MICASE corpus (Michigan Corpus of
Academic Spoken English) at the University of Michigan
(http://micase.umdl.umich.edu/m/micase/), and the BASE (British Academic
Spoken English) and BAWE (British Academic Written English) corpus at the
University of Warwick (http://www2.warwick.ac.uk/fac/soc/celte/research/).
