Investigating Real Language
Monday + Tuesday, June 23-24, 2008 ..... 9:00am - 4:30pm

The workshop covers the basics of building language corpora (collections of texts) and how to analyze them using simple software. There will be hands-on opportunities to work with spoken, written, and learner corpora. As well as receiving a theoretical outline, participants will do practical work with vocabulary and grammar frequency lists, concordances, keyword lists, collocations, etc.). Participants will also see a demonstration and be able to use the new CALPER GOLD software (Graphic Online Language Diagnostic) where you can build and analyze your own corpus.

Presenter: Michael McCarthy, U Nottingham (emeritus)
PA teachers: ACT 48 - 12 hrs
Program Cost: $80
