Meeting Description:
This free two-day workshop, arranged jointly by
the University of Auckland and Lancaster
University, offers a series of sessions on
topics in corpus linguistics and the
application of corpus techniques in discourse
studies and research on second language
acquisition. We welcome everyone who wants to
learn more about this versatile methodology for
language analysis; no specialised knowledge
about language corpora is required, but basic
familiarity with the use of computers is
presupposed. The workshop offers a mixture of
practical and theoretical sessions in which the
participants will learn to apply corpus
techniques in a number of contexts.
Registration in advance is required, as places
are limited.
