Learner Corpus Research: Applications of learner corpora to Foreign Language Teaching, Second Language Acquisition, and Language Testing and Assessment

Mª Belén Díez Bedmar (Universidad de Jaén)

Learner Corpus Research (LCR) emerged in the late 1980s thanks to the compilation and analysis of learner corpora. Although the field is still young, it is a thriving one.  Methodologically speaking, it has witnessed the conceptualization of three main methodologies in the 1990s, namely Contrastive Interlanguage Analysis (CIA), Computer-aided Error Analysis (CEA) and the Integrated Contrastive Model (ICM).Two decades later CIA, and to some extent ICM and CEA, were reconceptualized so that the many variables which are at play in language production are now better considered. Likewise, detailed accounts of the stages and steps in CEA or error annotation have also been provided to improve the validity and reliability of this widely used methodology in LCR. Efforts are being made in the field to compile and better analyse a wider range of interlanguage varieties.
