The MICASE Handbook includes:
* abstracts of all 152 speech events included in the corpus
* speech events organized by type of speech event, academic division, interactivity rating, participant level, and characteristics of the primary speaker
* guidelines for developing pedagogical materials and sample MICASE-based instructional materials.
