Abstract
The course will introduce students to the basics of text studies and to acquaint them with digital instruments that can be used for text analysis and text compression. Students will undertake detailed, language-focused, contextually sensitive analyses of a wide range of texts – spoken, written and multimodal. Students will learn how digital tools and artificial intelligence can assist their research endeavours and help them describe research backgrounds and outcomes in line with the requirements of academic discourse.
Learning Objectives
- •familiarize students with fundamental concepts and methodologies in text studies;
- • explore different types of texts, including spoken, written, and multimodal;
- • guide students in describing research backgrounds and outcomes following academic discourse standards;
- • emphasize the importance of clear, concise, and coherent presentation of research findings;
- • equip students with the skills necessary to conduct independent research using digital tools;
- • support students in developing their research projects from inception to completion, using digital instruments effectively.
Expected Learning Outcomes
- utilize AI tools to tailor texts for specific target audiences
- identify the basic principles, concepts and methods used to analyze text structure, meaning, and discourse patterns
- utilize AI tools to perform tasks of basic text analysis and linguistic analysis
