31Joint ResearchResearch ResourcesOverviewTraining and Capacity Building“Fieldling” is a research project that aims to create a collaborative framework, a ‘community’, for junior researchers who are scattered throughout Japan but are actively involved in descriptive linguistics through their original linguistic eld work.Since its inception in 2005, Fieldling has hosted numerous conferences and workshops, all proposed and carried out by the participating researchers. Fieldling now has the basis of its operation within the Linguistic Dynamics Science Project.“Corpus-based Linguistics and Language Education” (CbLLE) is funded under the “Global COE” program of the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology for establishing education and research centers. CbLLE will be run for ve years from 2007 jointly by the TUFS Graduate School of Area and Culture Studies and ILCAA, TUFS.Corpus-based linguistics is the domain of linguistics that uses language corpora for the analysis of various subsystems of language such as phonetics, phonology, morphology, syntax, semantics, and also language variation.With the motto “from eld research to linguistic corpus creation, from corpus analysis to language pedagogy,” CbLLE aims at the enrichment of research, educational and developmental environments to strengthen the integration of subelds of linguistics – primary data collections in eld, corpus building and linguistic analysis and its application to language education. To attain the goal, we effectively integrate the activities and results from the three research components: Field linguistic research component, Corpus linguistic research component, and Linguistic informatics research component.CbLLE also aims at nurturing researchers and educators who acquire the methods of the above three subelds of research in a well-balanced manner. http://www.aa.tufs.ac.jp/en/projects/cblle/Corpus-based Linguistics and Language Education (CbLLE)Corpus-based Linguistics and Language Education (CbLLE)Fieldling: Building a Community of Field LinguistsFollowing activities are conducted by the project.1. organizing conferences on specic topics in which the participants bring together data from their own eld research for presentation and discussion;2. organizing workshops aimed at improving methodologies and techniques of data analysis;3. publishing data and results of eld work;4. managing an interactive website, where the researchers can share their knowledge and information;5. managing a website to inform and enlighten the general public for better understanding of descriptive linguistics and language documentation.http://www.aa.tufs.ac.jp/en/training/eldling/Fieldling: Building a Community of Field Linguists
