The indicative range of topics for this Special Issue includes: - resources for developing learner dictionaries; - Call tools for language learners and teachers; - methods for measuring difficulty of texts for language learners; - psycholinguistic resources reporting the activity of language learners, such as eye- tracking, ERP, etc; - methods for compiling and annotating corpora intended for language learners; - designing specialised corpus resources for LSP; The authors are invited to contact the editors first to express their interest in submission with an extended abstract (up to 500 words) by 11 June 2011, with the full submitted version by the end of September.
