[[FrontPage]] First CFP for the CALICO'09 Pre-Conference Workshop on First CFP for the CALICO'09 Pre-Conference Workshop on Automatic Analysis of Learner Language (AALL'09): From a better understanding of annotation needs to the development and standardization of annotation schemes March 10 or 11, 2008. Arizona State University, Tempe, AZ. Submission Deadline: December 1, 2008 In this workshop, we want to bring together researchers working on the analysis of learner language in the broad sense, including work on annotation schemes for learner corpora and NLP techniques used to detect learner errors and other learner language properties. We invite abstracts addressing these general issues, including but not limited to: - Which properties of learner language are useful and relevant to In this workshop, we want to bring together researchers working on the analysis of learner language in the broad sense, including work on annotation schemes for learner corpora and NLP techniques used to detect learner errors and other learner language properties. We invite abstracts addressing these general issues, including but not limited to: - Which properties of learner language are useful and relevant to obtain for Foreign Language Teaching and current Second Language Acquisition research? - What annotation scheme or (error) taxonomy is appropriate for this - What annotation scheme or (error) taxonomy is appropriate for this and how do different annotation schemes compare? - How reliably can errors and other properties of learner language - How reliably can errors and other properties of learner language be obtained automatically given the current state-of-the art in NLP? - What is the impact of the specific properties of learner language - What is the impact of the specific properties of learner language on the (re)use of NLP technology? How does it impact performance and the potential use of such technology in foreign language teaching tools? - Which annotated learner language corpora have been used or could - Which annotated learner language corpora have been used or could be used to evaluate the performance of different approaches to analyzing learner language?
