DISCUSSION POINTS from http://cte319.pbworks.com/activity+-+intro+to+vocabulary+profiling
- How useful is it to learn what the computer things are ‘key words’ in a text? Is the computer better at picking out key words than you?
- Is the use of a concordance useful in seeing words in context in a text? How does this give you a different perspective on the words that you can’t get from just reading the text? Give an example for the text you used.
- To what extent can a tool like Multi-conc help students discover the lexico-grammar of a word? Would students need special training to use this tool effectively? Give the link to a multi-conc you created for the text you used.
