2015 Spring: 四技通識選修-Reflection Paper
Guidelines for Writing a Reflection Paper
| 1. | Paper must be typed. |
| 2. | Paper should be 1.5 to 2 page long (1.5 spaced). |
| 3. | Writing should use formal language (in English), correct spelling, and punctuation. |
| 4. | Topics reflected upon may include any information covered in class or from the reading. |
| 5. | Paper may take 1 or 2 topics and examine them in details, or more topics with less details. |
| Consider the followings when writing your reflection: | |
| 1. | What have we studied so far that interest you? |
| 2. | What new things have you learned? |
| 3. | How has your learning influenced the preconceptions or misconceptions you brought with you into class? |
| 4. | How has your learning influenced your view of computer in language learning/teaching? |
| 5. | Will what you have learned change your language learning behavior in the future? |
| Reminders: | |
| Writing a reflection helps you find what is meaningful to you and adds value to your learning. Do not simply outline or summarize the materials we have covered. I want to know what the materials mean to you. (6/23 due) | |

Internet & Reading 2
| 1. | Internet and Reading |
| “Read, read, read. Read everything – trash, classics, good and bad, and see how they do it. Just like a carpenter who works as an apprentice and studies the master. Read! You’ll absorb it. Then write. If it is good, you’ll find out. If it’s not, throw it out the window.” a quote from William Faulkner. |

|
| A. Go Comics | |

Corpus, Concordancer, and Collocation Retrival System
| 1. | Review |
| 2. | Concordancer |
| A concordancer is a kind of search engine designed for language study. If you enter a word, it looks through a large body of texts, called a corpus, and lists every single example of the word. | |
| 3. | What is a corpus? |
| A collection of texts, spoken and/or written, which has been designed and compiled based on a set of clearly defined criteria. (e.g. British National Corpus, BNC Spoken Corpus , Brown Corpus)Corpus users use a type of software called a “concordancer” to search for a specific word or phrase they want to find. The concordancer searches the whole database and then provides all the sentences containing that word or phrase. In this way, the user can see how it has been used by many different people, and can study its meaning, grammar, and so on.Corpora (that’s the plural of corpus) are now used by many people involved in language teaching. All of the modern learners’ dictionaries are based on corpora. People who study grammar and how best to teach it use corpora to discover new grammar principles NOT found in older grammar books. e.g. Cambridge International Corpus (Cambridge Online Dictionary).Different corpora native speaker vs. learner monolingual vs. multilingual |
|
| 4. | Bilingual online concordancers |
| Parallel corpus–A parallel corpus is a collection of texts, each of which is translated into one or more other languages than the original. | |

| 5. | What is collocation |
| 1. In English, certain words are often used together (co-occur). 2. Collocation refers to the restrictions on how words can be used together, for example which prepositions are used with particular verbs, or which verbs and nouns are used together. 3. Knowledge of collocations is vital for the competent use of a language. A grammatically correct sentence will stand out as ‘awkward’ if collocational preferences are violated. This makes collocation an interesting area for language teaching and learning.For example: make an appointment make a mistake make a dicision but, do an exercise do your homework do the research |
|
| 6. | Types of collocation |
| 1. Verb + Noun V + the survey (做問卷調查) V + a study V + difficulties2. Adjective + Noun Adj + probability (很高的可能性, 機會很大) There is __________ probability that price growth will remain. Tthere is a __________ chance that President Bush will take a new direction on Iraq.3. Adverb + Verb strongly + suggest4. Adverb + Adjective totally different very different slightly different5. Adjective + Preposition blamed for happy about happy with |

| A concordancer is a kind of search engine designed for language study. If you enter a word, it looks through a large body of texts, called a corpus, and lists every single example of the word.This lets you look at a word in context, see how common it is, and see the style associated with it. Such a tool is a computer-specific tool that you may not be familiar with from learning English by more traditional ways, but it is worth spending some time experimenting with it and getting to know how to use it.
In addition to showing you a clear and objective picture of language use, concordancer can help you with words that you are unsure of. You can use it to compare your usage with that of native speakers. Further reading at http://www.usingenglish.com/articles/concordancers.html |
