Electronic Language Resources in Teaching Mathematical Linguistics

Ivan Derzhanski, Rositsa Dekova


Abstract
The central role of electronic language resources in education is widely recognised (cf. Brinkley et al, 1999; Bennett, 2010; Derzhanski et al., 2007, among others). The variety and ease of access of such resources predetermines their extensive use in both research and education. With regard to teaching mathematical linguistics, electronic dictionaries and annotated corpora play a particularly important part, being an essential source of information for composing linguistic problems and presenting linguistic knowledge. This paper discusses the need for electronic resources, especially for less studied or low-resource languages, their creation and various uses in teaching linguistics to secondary school students, with examples mostly drawn from our practical work.
