Nearly 30 years after the first TaLC conference (1994, in Lancaster) and in light of the plurilingual and digital turns that have been/are being taken in our research and teaching agendas, I will discuss the need to reconsider some aspects of ‘teaching with corpora’ (what sort of corpora? for which learning/teaching goals? with which type of pedagogy?). The discussion will also focus on the importance of taking into account the competition (for better or worse) of other types of emerging technologies, tools and resources in language teaching and learning contexts. I will defend a polymorphic approach to (the future of) teaching with corpora.
