CORPUS.BYU.EDU

seven online corpora | 45 - 425 million words each

You can include links to corpus searches in your project, so that students don't have to fill out the search form themselves (and maybe see something different than what you want). The key to running the queries are the links that refer to searches that you yourself have already done. To include a link to these searches, look at your "history" once you've logged in. For example, suppose that it your history you see:

NOTE	CORPUS	RE-RUN QUERY	SHARE LINK	. . .	WHEN
1	coca	particularly [j*] [nn*]	11458507		0 h
2	coca	[j*] students	11458502		0 h

The link that you put in your web page is the one in the "Share Link" column. Right click on that link to copy the link ("Copy Shortcut" in Internet Explorer). For example:

http://corpus.byu.edu/coca/?c=coca&q=11458507

And then paste the link into your web page. Of course your web page will probably not just be a long list of links. Rather, it will be a regular web page with questions, discussion, etc, but with hyperlinks like that shown above. For just one example of a web page like this, click here. (It's not an activity for second language learners, but it should still give you an idea of how this works).
