What is Corpus?
Oxford Learner's Dictionaries define corpus as ''a collection of written or spoken texts''.
How to Use It?
In the classroom, corpora enable students to learn by themselves the mentioned subject. They will be able to observe any word in any context in any form!
The Corpus Plan My Friend and I Created
We used a preparatory school student's book as a source to prepare our material. We prepared an inductive material that leads students to discover the features of the language by themselves; which provides data-driven learning for them. We direct them to search for examples for may, might, must, and can. This way, they become acquainted with the usage of them and aware of how these properties of the target language are used, with which they achieve language awareness.
