The 4th Learner Corpus Research Conference in Bolzano last week brought many interesting ideas to the table. I am glad to note that LCR and SLA are finally talking to each other. I believe that there is great potential in combining the methods of corpus linguistics and experimental second language acquisition research. Norway was heavily represented at the conference with several researchers associated with the TraWL project from UiA, Inn, and UiO presenting several papers and a poster.
I also presented preliminary results from my research project as a poster (click here for a pdf version).
what are the ideas that the 4th Learner Corpus Research Conference brought?
