Abstract

In most classes, students read and listen to a lot of texts from their course books and external sources. These texts are often used for comprehension work but can also be used to form a ‘pedagogic corpus’ (Willis 2003) and exploited to develop awareness of the language patterns they contain. This short article gives two examples of how this can be achieved.
