The aim of this article is twofold: first, to briefly assess the influence that corpus linguistic research has had on second/foreign language learning so far, and second, to suggest future directions for a more coherent and well thought out integration of corpora in instructed settings. In section 1, the influence of native and learner corpus research on second/foreign language learning will be assessed in turn, and some reasons for the overall lack of uptake of corpora in educational contexts will be put forward. In section 2, I will argue that multiple paths will have to be explored for a better integration of corpora in instructed settings. The fact that various - and sometimes even radically opposite - directions will be proposed might appear conflicting at first sight, but it will be demonstrated that opting for a multiplicity of perspectives is the only way to lay the foundations of a healthy cross-fertilizationbetween corpus linguistics and the current multi-faceted language learning and teaching cultures.

This paper aims to explore the rationale of classroom negotiation - understood as a discussion between all participants in the teaching/learning process to decide on the organization of foreign language learning and teaching. It outlines relevant issues connected with the process syllabus and the benefits that can be expected from involving students in classroom decision making. The article presents results of research conducted in Polish schools among both students and teachers at different levels of education in order to see to what extent the foreign language syllabus is negotiated there.
