'Corpus linguistics tools in language acquisition research'
Thursday, April 15th 2021 at 6pm online.
This talk, by Prof. Anna Bączkowska (University of Gdansk), will explore the benefits of corpus linguistics tools in language teaching research and practice. Prof. Bączkowska will talk about the CHILDES database, which is a repository of transcripts of conversations held among adults and children.The data illustrate developmental changes occurring in language acquisition in monolingual and bilingual children. Some corpus and NLP tools which allow one to extract material from the database as well as some statistical information available through different software programs will be demonstrated. Examples will be shown and analysed by resorting to the data of bilingual and multilingual children.
The discussion will be chaired by Prof. Laura McLoughlin, Co-Director of CALM. This webinar is hosted by the Moore Institute. Please register in advance at this link:
