Meeting Description: 

The TESOL Italy Val d’Adige-Etschtal Local Group
cordially invites you to the online event
“Corpora in ELT: from basics to applications”
on Saturday 13 November, 2021 from 10:30-11:45am (CET) via Zoom

‘Well … I mean … I don’t know’: Using corpus methods to improve the
representation of spoken language in ELT coursebooks 
Niall Curry (Coventry University, UK) & Geraldine Mark (Mary Immaculate
College, University of Limerick, Ireland)

Does my teacher talk facilitate language acquisition? A corpus-informed study 
Eric Nicaise (Université catholique Louvain and University College
Louvain-en-Hainaut, Belgium)

Five simple things a teacher can do with a corpus
Graham Burton (Faculty of Education, Free University of Bozen-Bolzano)

Event description: This event will provide a brief introduction to corpora,
showcase two recently completed corpus-based research projects directly
related ELT (one on research in spoken language and how it can inform teaching
materials, the other on research on teacher talk and how it can facilitate
language acquisition), and provide some simple tools teachers can use in their
own planning and teaching. Participants will expand their knowledge of current
research in corpus linguistics and what implications this might have on
teaching and learning languages.
