I recently attended a fascinating workshop at the 5th International Symposium on Applied Linguistics #ALR2024, delivered by @natalie_eloise from the University of York and @lpedagogy. The session explored innovative ways to combine AI and vocabulary profiling in language teaching

@MLProfiler proved invaluable for analysing GCSE vocabulary in written texts against exam board word lists. It's brilliant for ensuring teaching materials are both comprehensible and curriculum-aligned.
Exciting news! The latest episode of ‘The Kate Languages Podcast’, which I produce, has just been released. In this episode, I join Kate Clifton to discuss how AI can support teachers preparing for the new GCSE in Modern Foreign Languages
Exciting news! The full programme for the AI MFL Teachers' Conference on Friday, 27th September 2024, at City of London Freemen's School is now available. This one-day event will focus on using AI to transform language teaching for the new GCSE. fb.me/e/caPyjrUXl
📢New feature: cognate highlighting
Users can now choose to highlight full cognates with English and include them in profiles
This saves time on adding them manually to an extended list
False cognates are also flagged, as these may need some extra attention from teachers
@YenDang101 and Marijana Macis presenting their really interesting and challenging work identifying Spanish-English cognates in academic spoken vocabulary and considering pedagogical implications
Also great to see innovative uses of
@MLProfiler in cognate analysis 😀

now has all 3 Awarding Organisation new GCSE wordlists for Fr, Gm, & Sp! Kudos to @natalie_eloise@antlabjp This tool is a game changer for curriculum design, lesson resources, and all types of text creation. I love using it. 😊
Great talk from @rashasoliman04 & colleagues @BAAL2023York on developing vocab profiles for beginner #Arabic. Main challenge is ensuring the range of lang varieties is represented. Freq lists only available for standard Arabic. Word simplicity & commonality are important criteria
The slides from our #CL2023 talk "Build your own word family: An adaptable vocabulary profiler for French, German and Spanish" are now available to download here: osf.io/c8qbj/
Thanks to all who came to our #CL2023 talk for great discussion of #wordfamilies in #LOTE!
Credit must go to @ldpedagogy colleagues for 100s hours spent developing the word lists behind @MLPprofiler.
Watch this space for next steps. In the meantime, check your counting units!
