Comment/Description

This course continues the general introduction to English Linguistics from last semester, focusing on how to do empirical work in linguistics. Students will be introduced to the different methods and tools to collect, process and analyze linguistic data. In this course, we focus on observation and diaries as well as corpus studies.

Coursework and assessment
You are expected to read and prepare selected texts for each session. The coursework will focus on real-life linguistic data and exercises which are designed to help you apply selected methods and tools and critically discuss their usefulness. By the end of the term, you are required to submit a portfolio comprising three data-based tasks, and participate in linguistic experiments.
