Abstract

Corpus linguistics (CL) has been found to greatly influence both the content and practice of English Language Teaching (ELT). With the application of the large practical corpora and technological tools, it has brought promising advantages to greatly enhance the foreign or second language teaching and learning in the current language education. Moreover, this field continues to evolve, driven by ongoing technological advancements and the ever-expanding availability of digital texts. To date, corpus technology has emerged as a pivotal role in foreign or L2 education. Nevertheless, EFL teachers may still face the challenges on how to integrate corpus technology into pedagogical practices in the class. Therefore, this systematic review study thoroughly analyzed the current empirical studies of this domain by reviewing 20 included studies published from 2020 to 2024 through Web of Science and Scopus, and explored the synergy effect between the use of corpus technology and pedagogical practices in the context of English language education. Included studies were reviewed to extract six major research parameters to construct a coding book: publication information, research methods, data collection methods, challenges of using corpus technology, pedagogical practices of developing corpus technology, and the effectiveness of using corpus technology. The findings revealed that the uses of corpus technology have demonstrated an effective strategy following innovative pedagogical practices, like Corpus-Based Language Pedagogy (CBLP), Data-Driven Learning (DDL) and other corpus-based instructions. These identified practices served as the latest evidences and reference to establish novel and valuable corpus-based pedagogical model for the future research direction.
