The workshop introduces the basics of language acquisition research and it describes how experimental and corpus
research may be employed in the study of language learning. The course provides evidence for and against the use of
statistical skills in language learning, and it covers the theories of cognition that more rely on this competence. Using
the lenses of corpus analysis and experimental research, the workshop will describe the acquisition and use of
linguistic units of varying size: phonemes, words, sentences, discourse. The workshop will focus particularly on the
acquisition of English (as L1 and L2).
