Quantitative corpus research on written language development has
expanded rapidly in recent years, assisted by the ever-increasing
power and accessibility of software capable of reliably analysing
huge collections of learner writing. For this work to reach its
full potential, it is important that researchers have a strong
understanding of its methodological foundations and of the existing
empirical evidence base on which it can build. This book provides
the most comprehensive discussion to date of research in this area.
Covering both first and second language learning contexts, it sets
out a coherent theoretical framework and systematically reviews
studies published over the last seventy years in order to establish
what such research has taught us about written language
development, what it hasn't taught us, and what we should do next.
Timely and original, this is an essential reference work for
academic researchers and students of first and second language
writing.
