Abstract
Abstract In her talk, Fanny Meunier will discuss the need to reconsider some key aspects of ‘teaching with corpora’ in our current high tech-saturated world. She will explain how the existence of NLP and AI-based technologies must prompt us to question some (perhaps too quickly ‘taken-for-granted’) aspects of using corpora in instructed settings. She will invite us to change our perspective and shift from a mainly applied linguistics mindset to an instructed SLA one. She will invite us to apply a ‘stop, think and act’ approach to re-assess the added value of using corpora in classrooms, and will show us that we might want to leave some well-trodden paths and actively explore new peripheries.
