研究成果概要

This research projected proceeded largely as planned with various components for a new data-driven learning (DDL) writing support tool being adapted from existing tools or newly created. Over the course of the project, these new components were publicly released in the form of updates to the AntConc, AntCorGen, AntGram, AntWordProfiler, and FireAnt tools, all of which are freely available for download at: https://www.laurenceanthony.net/software/. In addition, the AntWordProfiler tools was completely re-written in Python with a simpler, more intuitive interface. This allows researchers and teachers to more easily profile texts to assist in the selection and creation of vocabulary learning materials for the classroom and also facilitate data-driven learning of vocabulary by learners in classroom settings. This new version of AntWordProfiler is still being tested but is planned to be released publicly in the first half of 2021. As planned, some of the results of the project were presented at the CL2019 conference, Cardiff, UK and the 45th JAECS Annual Conference, Kochi, Japan. In addition, a number of international plenary talks on the topic of the project were delivered in Hong Kong, Taiwan, and the Philippines. Other outputs from the project include two book chapters and one international refereed journal paper.
