Sažetak
This chapter attempts to draw conclusions about the extent and modality of corpora use in teaching less commonly taught languages, based on the teachers' experience with their foreign language students, their use of corpora and corpus tools to prepare teaching materials, and based on their use of the corpora in the direct teaching process. The advantages and challenges of using OERs in teaching less commonly taught languages across different language learning levels discussed in this chapter are the result of detailed analysis of the preferences and needs of teachers at Croaticum (Centre for Croatian as a second and foreign language – CFL at the University of Zagreb), which is considered the largest and central institution for teaching CFL. The results are also based on the analysis of existing Croatian language corpora and the literature about these corpora.
