Teaching about definition
Teaching about means teaching corpus linguistics as an academic subject like other sub-disci- plines of linguistics such as syntax and pragmatics. Corpus linguistics has now found its way into the curricula for linguistics and language related degree programmes at both postgraduate and under- graduate levels in many universities around the world. “Teaching to exploit” means providing stu- dents with “hands-on” know-how, as emphasized in McEnery, Xiao and Tono (2006), so that they can exploit corpora for their own purposes. Once the student has acquired the necessary knowledge and techniques of corpus-based language study, the learning activity may become student centred. “Exploiting to teach” means using a corpus-based approach to teaching language and linguistics courses (e.g. sociolinguistics and discourse analysis), which would otherwise be taught using non- corpus-based methods.
