An Interactive Introduction to Corpus Basics
On the Virtual Linguistics Campus (VLC), an Open Educational Resource platform hosted by the Technical University of Aachen and Prof. Jürgen Handke of the University of Marburg, you can find a complete set of self-learning courses. These go well beyond this video series, as they involve interactive excercises and feedback familiarizing you thoroughly with the corpus portal English-Corpora.org and how to use it. It is free and safe! Have a look!
