Ahoy my dear readers✋😃. We're back together again with an exciting new topic: Corpus Linguistics! Whether you're a teacher or a student, I'm sure you’ll find it both engaging and enjoyable. Corpus Linguistics is the study of language using large collections of real-life texts, like books, articles, and conversations. By looking at these texts with special computer tools, we can find out how words are used and what language patterns exist. This helps us understand how people really use language, not just how it's taught in theory 😎. It’s useful for both teachers and students to learn more about how language works in everyday life.
My friends (Nisa Elmas & Yağmur Kavak 💜) and I have prepared a worksheet for you. In this worksheet, there is a Discovery section where students can explore and understand the rules of Corpus Linguistics inductively, by observing real-life examples. Don't worry!😃 We've also included instructions on how you can use corpus as a tool. It's a great resource for both teachers and students. You'll understand what I mean better once you take a look at the worksheet.

It was an invaluable experience for me to learn how to use the corpus to enhance my teaching. Moreover, learning how to integrate authentic materials in such an easy way is very precious. We also used Canva for the worksheet templates. It was a really enjoyable experience, both designing the materials and preparing the activities.
As always, until next time, keep smiling and stay tuned for more edutainment 😉. Cheer!😄
