Description

The first version of this corpus, under the LETEC standard - corpus for learning -, (Chanier, T. & Wigham, C.R. , 2011) may be downloaded from Mulce website http://repository.mulce.org" with the code oai:mulce.org:mce-archi21-letec-all. From the original corpus have been extracted part of the interactions (all reflexive sessions) which occurred in Second Life between the course participants. The Archi 21 project seeks to provide innovative methods and materials supporting second language learning through a content and language integrated approach (CLIL) merged integrated with architectural and design education and practice and the use of emerging ICT technologies. Building Fragile Spaces was the first pilot course for Archi21 project. It was a hybrid (fate-to-face and distance) CLIL design studio held on 7-11 February 2011 and designed by architecture tutors from l'Ecole Nationale Supérieure d'Architecture Paris-Malaquais and language tutors from Université Blaise Pascal, Clermont-Ferrand, France. The face-to-face part of the course is typical within the field of architectural education: professionals work in small groups with students, over a short period, developing design ideas. The innovative distance French and English L2 activities of the studio incorporated both architectural and linguistic objectives and were conducted in the synthetic world Second Life.

The initial corpus was then converted to TEI standard in the project CoMeRe (Communication Médiée par les Réseaux). This project aims to build a kernel corpus assembling existing corpora of different CMC (Computer-Mediated Communication) genres and new corpora build on data extracted from the Internet. These heterogenous corpora will be structured and processed in a uniform way, complemented with metadata. CoMeRe will be released as OpenData through the national infrastructure Ortolang, following constraints which will be reused for the forthcoming “Corpus de Référence du Français”. Project supported by the national consortium Corpus-écrits.
