Text corpora is well-established as a resource for language research, but there is growing interest in its potential for teaching and its use as a resource for students of linguistics. This text explores the application of corpora to language teaching, aiming to show teachers and students how to create materials using corpora and how to develop their own corpora. The book consists of four main sections: "Theoretical Issues", which discusses issues around the use of corpora to test hypotheses about language and language learning; "Teachers and Corpora", which examines the use of corpora to create and inform teaching and learning materials; "Learners and Corpora", which shows learners how to use corpora for their own investigation into language; and "Practical Issues", a section devoted to corpus development.
