The workshop “Corpus based and experimental research in SLA. The
state-of-the-art and future directions” is organized within the
project “Learner Corpus of Romanian (LECOR). Collection, Annotation
and Applications”, funded by the Executive Unit for Financing Higher
Education, Research, Development and Innovation (UEFISCDI,
PN-III-P1-1.1-TE-2019-1066), by University of Bucharest (Faculty of
Letters – “Solomon Marcus” Center for Computational Linguistics, The
Department of Linguistics, Center for Romanian Studies) and “Iorgu
Iordan – Al. Rosetti” Institute of Linguistics (Romanian Academy).

Scientific committee
Ana Maria BARBU, Romanian Academy / University of Bucharest
Sylviane GRANGER, Université Catholique de Louvain
Elena IRIMIA, Romanian Academy / University of Bucharest
Carmen MÎRZEA VASILE, University of Bucharest / Romanian Academy
Elena PLATON, Babeș-Bolyai University

Call for Papers:

The workshop is aimed at fostering discussions on how learner corpus
research (LCR) does and can benefit the second and foreign language
acquisition (SLA) research paradigm, complementarily to experimental
approaches. We therefore welcome papers presenting both corpus-based
and corpus-driven research, as well as reports of experiments,
surveys, etc. Contributions may include, but are not limited to the
following research directions:

- the combined use of learner corpus data and experimental data in SLA
research;
- learner corpus design, collection, annotation, exploitation for
testing particular SLA theories;
- error analysis and interlanguage profile at certain stages of SL /
FL development;
- differences in the development of learner vocabulary, grammar,
pragmatics and cultural appropriateness;
- case studies through contrastive interlanguage analysis (CIA).

We particularly encourage proposals that investigate the acquisition
of (relatively) underresearched non-native languages, such as
Romanian. Thus, papers exploiting any kind of learner corpus (raw or
bespoke, as well as electronic, annotated; “natural” or “peripheral”;
big or small, etc.) are acceptable.

Abstracts, no longer than 500 words (references excluded), in Times
New Roman, size 12, will be sent by attachment to:
bucla8 at lls.unibuc.ro  and carmen.vasile at unibuc.ro (Carmen Mîrzea
Vasile).

Presentations will be scheduled for 30-minute slots (20 minutes
presentation followed by 10 minutes for discussions).  The workshop
language is English.
Authors may submit up to two first-authored abstracts.
All authors who present in the colloquium will be invited to submit
their paper for a volume of selected contributions.
