AutoCor is a method for the automatic acquisition and classification of corpora of documents in closely-related languages. It is an extension and enhancement of CorpusBuilder, a system that automatically builds specific minority language corpora from a closed corpus, since some Tagalog documents retrieved by CorpusBuilder are actually documents in other closely-related Philippine languages. AutoCor used the query generation method odds ratio, and introduced the concept of common word pruning to differentiate between documents of closely-related Philippine languages and Tagalog. The performance of the system using with and without pruning are compared, and common word pruning was found to improve the precision of the system.

Learner-centered approach has been a recent research focus in the second language acquisition, but few studies have dealt with how to develop learner autonomy, particularly in a computer-assisted language learning environment. The paper first illustrates the importance of promoting learner autonomy in the EFL context and elaborates the three main factors contributing to its development. Then it focuses on how the CALL research project promotes autonomous learning through a small-scale study in Gyeongju University. Both quantitative and qualitative methods have been employed to examine whether in the CALL project learners exercise control over their own learning and evaluate the outcome. The results indicate that due to a flexible syllabus, highly motivating research topics and the network-assisted environment, learners do take responsibility for most aspects of learning and thus the CALL project proves to be a promising approach for autonomous learning.

Recently much research has investigated the role of attention in L2 learning, comparing the effects of explicit learning with those of implicit learning. With this background the research aims at examining the effects explicit focus on form has on L2 learning based on the acquisition of the English article system. The participants were 70 Korean college students who enrolled in English Composition classes. The experimental group received explicit focus on form including grammatical explanation, input enhancement, output practice, and negative evidence (corrective feedback) for two weeks, while the control group was exposed to sufficient input and negative evidence. Completion tasks were administered at the beginning and the end of the semester. In addition, errors in the use of English articles were analysed on their compositions both before and after the different treatments. The analyses of the results show that the explicit focus on form group improved significantly more than the control group, particularly for the definite article 'the', and some changes occurred in the distribution of article errors. These findings suggest that explicit teaching plays a more contributory role than implicit teaching in acquiring L2 knowledge in classroom-based L2 learning.

본 연구의 목적은 형태초점 교수법과 오류수정 피드백이 영어 구문 학습에 효과적인지를 살펴보고, 이에 대한 학생들의 반응을 파악하기 위함이다. 연구 참여자들은 필수과목인 영어회화 강좌를 수강하는 8개 분반의 초급수준의 대학교 1학년 학생 122명이다. 이들 여덟 개 분반을 무작위로 세 그룹 즉 시각적 입력강화 집단(TIE group), 출력강화 집단(DICT group)과 통제집단(CG group)으로 나누어 사전 사후 평가 및 설문조사를 실시하였다. SPSS 21.0 for Window 프로그램을 사용하여 형태초점 교수법과 오류수정 피드백의 효과와 학생들의 영어수업에 대한 인식과 태도의 변화를 분석하였다. 연구결과, 본 연구에 활용된 형태초점 교수활동인 입력강화 및 출력강화 활동과 오류수정 피드백 모두가 학생들이 문법형태에 대한 지식을 향상시키는데 효과가 있는 것으로 나타났으며, 실험집단 모두가 형태초점 교수법과 오류수정 피드백에 긍정적인 인식과 태도를 보였고, 실험에 참여한 모든 학생들이 짝 활동(pair work)을 선호하였다. 또한, 통제집단(CG group)을 제외한 대부분의 시각적 입력강화 집단(TIE group)과 출력강화 집단(DICT group) 학생들은 영어수업에 대한 만족과 흥미를 보였던 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 실험 결과에 의거하여, 한국의 EFL 학습 환경에 있는 학생들의 영어 학습에 대한 개인적인 선호도를 고려하여 짝 활동 (pair work)의 형태로 목표문법형태 학습에 적절한 형태초점 교수법을 적용할 것을 제안한다.
