How to Introduce Students to Linguistic Research Using Voyant Tools
Year: 2024
Type: article
Abstract: ABSTRACT This paper aims to demonstrate the productivity of using Voyant Tools (SINCLAIR; ROCKWELL, c2023) - a web environment for text analysis - for pedagogical purposes, especially in (future) lexical researchers training. To do so, we propose discussion rounds and practical activities which can be adapted to different target audiences, from basic education to graduate students. We hope this paper encourages new pedagogical uses of Voyant Tools and also guides teachers who want to introduce students to descriptive linguistic research or to use Voyant Tools as one of their pedagogical resources in classroom.
