Book title | Storytelling in Multilingual Interaction: A Conversation Analysis Perspective |
Chapter |
Abstract
This chapter uses conversation analysis (CA) to trace changes in one learner’s repair practices during a repetitive storytelling activity in an intermediate-level ESL classroom. An analysis of the learner’s phonological and grammatical repairs is guided by two questions: How are the repair sequences organized, and what changes occur in the sequences over the course of subsequent tellings? By considering the impact of task repetition on a student’s linguistic performance, this study highlights CA’s analytical potential for examining learning processes during classroom activities. The findings contribute to the larger sociocultural reconceptualization of second language acquisition by demonstrating how learning occurs and is made visible during a student’s interaction with her teacher and peers.
