In her comprehensive and groundbreaking work, Joanna Baumgart delves into the realm of educational practice, unveiling the transformative power of a mixed-methods approach that seamlessly combines corpus linguistics and discourse analysis. This insightful book, titled Corpus Linguistics and Cross-Disciplinary Action Research, is rooted in a comprehensive corpus of 22,000 words, meticulously collected from mathematics lessons in a multicultural secondary school in Ireland. The analysis of classroom data is enriched by insights gained through reflective meetings with the participating teacher, fostering a deep understanding of the pedagogical landscape. Through the examination of video recordings of lessons and engaging reflective conversations, the book showcases how these practices facilitate discursive changes within the classroom and enhance teachers' awareness of classroom interactions.

Throughout, the role of teacher talk serves as a model for the subject-specific discourse into which students are socialized. Baumgart also weaves a captivating narrative of a successful interdisciplinary approach to action research, providing a vivid illustration of how talk and interaction can be analyzed within the broader educational context.

By leveraging the profound influence of language, particularly talk, on teaching and learning processes, this book holds immense appeal to teacher-educators and researchers alike in the domains of corpus linguistics, discourse analysis, and educational linguistics. It offers valuable insights and practical strategies for enhancing teaching and learning outcomes, fostering a more inclusive and effective educational environment.
