This is done in order to allow the learners to gain more insight into the language structure and use, on the basis of which they can come to generalisations and formulate rules of grammar. Corpus-based language teaching and learning equips learners with knowledge and skills that can be used for this purpose. The advantage of using language corpora as teaching and learning materials is that they provide examples of authentic language. The chosen or built corpus is usually large enough to enable the learner to find a sufficient number of examples of a word or phrase in a context which is presented in an electronic form. As language corpora offer some obvious didactic advantages, they are becoming more and more popular among foreign language teachers and learners. The corpus is usually subjected to a concordance analysis which means using analytical software (a concordancer) to find the occurrences of a particular word or phrase in a text or in a compilation of texts. The aim of this paper is to present the possibilities which the use of a language corpus in combination with concordancing software give to teachers in their designing of language learning tasks After some brief theoretical foundations about the usefulness of concordancing, the paper presents the author's experience in the application of these tools in the classroom展开更多

文摘数据驱动学习(Data-driven Learning简称DDL)是信息化教学模式中基于资源的一种教学模式,是一种新的基于语料库数据的外语学习方法。DDL可以为生词提供众多语境接触(Contextual Encounter)而这点被认为是词汇学习的重要条件。另外,语料库特有的KWIC(KeyWord in Context)关键词索引行呈现方式有关某一语言项目的大量示例可以扩大学习者的词汇量和提高他们对语言型式的关注程度。本文以近义词chance和opportunity为例通过对学习者语料库CLEC中chance和opportunity的检索发现DDL能够有效地促进词汇深度知识的自主学习、发现式学习。
