Academic Writing with Corpora offers a step-by-step accessible
guide to using concordancers and aims to help introduce data-driven
learning into the academic English classroom. Addressing the
challenges faced by EAP teachers when explaining to their students
how to write 'naturally', this book provides a solution to the
problem by placing an emphasis on learning from expert and
proficient writing. In doing so, it: takes a highly practical
approach; uses Lextutor, an easy-to-use, open access concordancer,
whilst introducing students to tools, such as SkELL, MICUSP and
BNC-English Corpora; fosters autonomous learning by demonstrating
how to solve everyday difficulties in word choice and grammar;
helps teachers to use corpora in teaching proficient writing and
helps students to improve their academic writing by learning from
the best examples in their field; guides students towards better
awareness of the communicative side of academic writing. This book
forms essential reading for all students on academic writing and
EAP courses or who wish to improve their writing.
