| Research Abstract |
In order to offer language support to science and engineering researchers that are non-native speakers of those languages, research presentations delivered in Japanese by Japanese students, in English by American students, and in English by experienced researchers, were recorded and transcribed. After analysis of the presentation contents, a set of moves, which are a combination of a section and a step, were determined. Each utterance in the transcriptions was tagged properly according to the moves, and the tagged transcriptions were uploaded to JECPRESE(The Japanese-English Corpus of Presentations in Science and Engineering, http ://www. jecprese. sci. waseda. ac. jp/). Researchers from all over the world can now consult JECPRESE when preparing their presentations, through searches for words/expressions, or moves.
