    CALL FOR PAPERS
    A workshop on learner corpora will be held prior to Corpus
    Linguistics 2003, at Lancaster University, UK. The purpose
    of the workshop is to present the state of the art in
    learner corpus research and explore new directions in the
    design, development and applications of learner corpora in
    linguistic and language teaching/learning research.

    Papers are solicited concerning all aspects of learner
    corpora. Of particular interest are papers describing work
    in the following areas:

    - corpus-based studies of interlanguage development
    - contrastive analysis of L1 and L2 corpora (L1 influence;
       universal vs. L1-specific error analysis)
    - learner corpus building, encoding and annotation
       (error tagging)
    - development of language analysis tools designed for LC
    - applications of LC research in syllabus/materials
       development and testing
    - applications of LC research in SLA research
    - applications of LC research in developing teacher
       training programmes

    The workshop will present invited lectures, poster
    sessions, and panel discussions on these topics. The
    length will depend upon how much response we get.

    Abstracts of up to one page should be submitted to the
    Programme Committee by 20th Dec 2002 (Notice: Deadline
    extended). As well as an outline of the paper, the
    abstract should include the authors' names, affiliations,
    and contact addresses (including e-mail and fax numbers).
    Electronic submissions are welcome.

    Email address: Yukio Tono ( y.tono@meikai.ac.jp )
                    Fanny Meunier (meunier@lige.ucl.ac.be)

    We will be having a separate proceedings for the workshop
    possibly as a UCREL technical paper.
