Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In order to support teachers and students who are involved in English-medium instruction and are nonnative English speakers, we built the Online Corpus of Academic Lectures (OnCAL, http://www.oncal.sci.waseda.ac.jp/) from 430 lecture transcripts made available by MIT and Stanford University. We identified various pedagogical functions, which are related to different types of explanations in the classroom discourse, so that OnCAL users can see in detail how native English speakers use language in the classroom to realize each pedagogical purpose.
