Next webinar in the tenth anniversary series of Issues in #appliedlinguistics: Wed. 19th February 13.00 GMT
Title: Authenticity in #languagelearning materials: where are we now? #corpuslinguistics Speaker: Dr Geraldine Mark @GelMMark
Issues around ‘authenticity’ and ‘genuineness’ in language learning have been widely discussed for over 50 years. In 2015, in this series, we considered to what extent authenticity is lost in translation in language learning materials, and discussed the advantages and disadvantages of, for example, edited texts, gapped exercises, and scripted listening extracts. Ten years on, we’ll review representations of everyday language in language learning resources, particularly in relation to speaking and interaction. We’ll revisit definitions of authenticity in light of the increased use of AI in our daily lives and its impact on materials development.
Dr Mark is an applied corpus linguist with experience in a variety of roles encompassing language teaching and learning, spoken and written discourse analysis, multi-modal interaction, instructional architecture, and materials design and development. Her principal interests are in corpus linguistics (CL) and its diverse applications, particularly in relation to spoken and written discourse, L1 and L2 development, register, pragmatics, multilingualism, language identity and materials design.
