課程概述

This course offers an introduction of corpus linguistics for graduate students, including the necessary tools and techniques for doing corpus-based studies and annotation projects. Existing major corpora will be scrutinized for a better understanding of their linguistic uses. Some specific goals of this course are to enable students to make, annotate and search corpora, and to perform a quantitative analysis of some linguistic phenomenon.  

課程目標
Students will also gain hands-on experience in these areas by working on a specific topic of their own interest. 
課程要求
You are expected to complete weekly readings and assignments, and actively participate in both class and online activities.

Each class will be divided into three sessions: lecture (one hours), seminal discussion (one hours), and in-class Lab session (one hour). Lab session will give participants hands-on experience in creating and annotating small corpus.

You are expected to submit a term project involving original, corpus-based research. It can be either a local corpus construction project, a program (with documentation) to perform some substantial corpus processing task, or a research paper on a corpus-based topic. You will be asked to turn in a proposal early in the semester so that I can help you design and execute your project. Proposed topics will also be discussed in class later.


There will be no exams. Grading is based on : 60% of the grade will be based on participation and exercises. Students will be given several in-class and homework assignments. The remaining 40% will be based on their performance on a project, including the effort going into its development and the quality of their written and oral presentation of it during the last week of class.
