-
Colombia is
- a MONOLINGUAL country in
relation to Spanish
a MULTILINGUAL in relation to the
indigenous languages
OBJECTIVE
To present the structure of a
methodological procedure for the
specialized text mining through specific
keywords applicable to different LSP- text
typologies in specialized areas. In this
case, the use of a foreign language by the
experts is unusual
Many researchers are unaware of the use
appropriate search engines to select the
right documents in order to determine the
specialized texts in the needed foreign
language.
In that case, the benefits of a digital
interactive text mining can be greatly
reduced.
INTRODUCTION
According to the research carried out on
cognitive autonomy and reading literacy
(Pulgarín,Plested, 2012), readers of
specialized fields (most of them
postgraduate students) considered that
their level of a foreign language
appropriation was weak. That means they
do not have the competence to determine
keywords derived of a concept system in
order to build textual relationships to
understand a text in a foreign language or

For
most

researchers in many
specialized fields to

BIBLIOGRAPHY in a
foreing language, even
if they can read in that
foreign language, is
like…
THEORETICAL SUPPORT
Our research’s theoretical starting point is based
on the WIKO Model. It is understood as an
organizational focus of expertise constituted by
conceptual units that represent the subject field or
discipline of every spoken or written process
coherently.
The contextualized terminology in a foreign
language must be seen as an additional tool in the
learning or us of that language. This practice
improves the acquisition basis and gives users the
possibility to elaborate and acquire new
knowledge.
In addition, one of the most important aspects is to

otro, la obtención del ADN

TERMINOLOGICAL PROCEDURE
Achieved results
Methodology for Terminology. Díaz, 2007
CONCLUSIONS
• Each terminology analysis permitted effective
text mining and determined specific keywords
to build the glossaries
• The application of COLTERM methodology for
terminological work combined with reading
strategies allowed a better use of specialized
keywords by experts, students or researchers,
which knowledge in a foreign language is
weak.
• SPECIALIZED TEXT MINING THROUGH SPECIFIC KEYWORDS
gave a harmonized and effective
CONCLUSIONS
• The production of specialized glossaries and
lexicons favored the creation of an
interdisciplinary awareness and scientific
community.
• All the processes in the projects were validated
through workshops of experts and guided
activities for autonomous learning.
• The specialized text mining through specific
keywords allowed experts in different subject
fields to determine a set of informational
contents which provide them a better
contextualized conceptual understanding of
LSP-documentation of their disciplines.
