Outline of Research at the Start

In the first year of the project, working with partner universities in Japan and the UK, corpora of written texts collected from students in the UK (UKC) and L1 Japanese learners (LJC) will be prepared for analysis. Corpus analysis of the UKC will begin. In the second and third years, we will analyse the LJC and work on developing IELTS knowledge-based vocabulary and collocation lists.
