The origins of learner corpus research go back to the late 1980s
when large electronic collections of written or spoken data started
to be collected from foreign/second language learners, with a view
to advancing our understanding of the mechanisms of second language
acquisition and developing tailor-made pedagogical tools. Engaging
with the interdisciplinary nature of this fast-growing field, The
Cambridge Handbook of Learner Corpus Research explores the diverse
and extensive applications of learner corpora, with 27 chapters
written by internationally renowned experts. This comprehensive
work is a vital resource for students, teachers and researchers,
offering fresh perspectives and a unique overview of the field.
With representative studies in each chapter which provide an
essential guide on how to conduct learner corpus research in a wide
range of areas, this work is a cutting-edge account of learner
corpus collection, annotation, methodology, theory, analysis and
applications.
