The chapters also remind us of how valuable it is to use corpus tools to investigate learner language and - centrally - of how and why one might put the tools for investigating language corpora into the hands of learners themselves.This is essential reading for language teachers and researchers with an interest in the direction of travel of corpus applications in language education.
