LANGUAGE CORPORA FOR GRAMMAR DEVELOPMENT

Description

The book “Language Corpora for Grammar Development: Innovative Approaches to Language Learning” explores the transformative role of language corpora in contemporary grammar instruction and second language learning. Drawing on insights from corpus linguistics, Data-Driven Learning (DDL), and second language acquisition research, this book examines how authentic language data can be used to promote grammar development, long-term retention of language items, learner autonomy, and deeper engagement with language. 

The volume provides a comprehensive overview of the theoretical foundations of corpus-informed learning and investigates the ways in which corpus-based approaches can be integrated into grammar teaching and learning.

By bridging linguistic theory, educational research, and classroom practice, the book demonstrates how language corpora can serve as powerful pedagogical resources for fostering discovery learning and evidence-based language use. It offers practical guidance for teachers, teacher educators, researchers, curriculum designers, and postgraduate students seeking innovative approaches to language education.
