Mit Wortschatz und lexikografischen Ressourcen handeln: kritische Überlegungen zur Anwendung lexikalischer, lexikografischer und digitaler Kompetenzen im virtuellen Raum beim akademischen Schreiben im DaF-Bereich

Acting with Lexicon and Lexicographical Resources: Critical Reflec­tions on the Use of Lexical, Lexicographic and Digital Literacy in Vir­tual Environments in Academic Writing in GfL. The paper deals with vocabulary acquisi­tion in the academic writing process in advanced GfL in interaction with the development of appropriate language awareness and wide-ranging up-to-date digital literacy. The starting point is the observation that in the academic L2 writing process the extensive information potential of mono­lingual, bilingual and multilingual lexicographic and lexico-grammatical online resources as well as other language technology tools is not adequately known. Accordingly, the many digital language resources are not optimally used for methods of teaching vocabulary and acting with it, e.g. in academic writing. On the other hand, digital media occupy more and more space in our everyday life and also provide highly developed tools based on linguistic technology for various L2 competence areas, such as translation. The aim of this paper is therefore both to show ways of making sensible use of existing internet resources and to outline entirely new ways based on artifi­cial intelligence. Selected resources will be used as examples to demonstrate the extensive infor­ma­tion potential and to discuss possibilities for use in academic writing. An outlook points to the necessity of adapting to revolutionary technological changes in the field of foreign language didac­tics.
