Title and Abstract
Exploiting corpus-based information about academic speaking
 Mike McCarthy
University of Nottingham, School of English

Recent developments in spoken corpus analysis have generated a lot of quantitative information about academic speaking. However, successfully exploiting such information to inform EAP pedagogy calls for additional qualitative interpretation that takes into account institutional speech events and stylistic variability. Corpus insights enable us to go beyond formal features of the grammar and the lexicon to an understanding of phenomena such as chunking, turn-taking, discourse marking and pragmatic features of monologic and interactive teaching and learning styles.
