Shelley Staples on Corpus Cast #33

We’re delighted to share that Crow researcher Dr. Shelley Staples was the invited guest on CorpusCast this week! Dr. Staples and Dr. Robbie Love discussed learner corpora on Episode 33, September 5, 2024.

Corpus Cast is produced by Dr. Love, senior lecturer in English Language & Linguistics at Aston University, UK, and co-director of the Aston Centre for Applied Linguistics (ACAL).

In this 52 minute conversation, hear Shelley and Robbie talk about multiple issues related to learner corpora. They spend quite a bit of time on the ethical issues related to corpus building. They discuss how corpus-based teaching can compliment generative artificial intelligence, and look ahead to some of Crow’s next moves in corpus development more broadly. Make sure you listen to Shelley’s concluding advice for students interested in corpus-based research!
