| − | There are various analytic pathways for research within Conversation Analysis (CA) and Interactional Linguistics (IL): One can start with a specific '''social action''' and focus, e.g., on how that specific action can be accomplished in a particular language or across different languages. Commonly, such inquiries begin with actions like requests (e.g., Curl and Drew 2008; Drew and Couper-Kuhlen 2014; Fox and Heinemann 2016, 2017; Gubina 2021; Rossi 2012; Zinken 2016), offers (e.g., Curl 2006; Mandelbaum & Lerner 2023; Mondada 2023; Raymond et al. 2021), proposals (e.g., Thompson et al. 2021), and assessments (e.g., Thompson et al. 2015), to mention just a few. Another common strategy is to begin with a '''(linguistic) form''' (Couper-Kuhlen & Selting 2001, 2018; Fox 2007), i.e., a recurrent (semi-)linguistic format on different levels of granularity used for accomplishing specific social actions in interaction. Studies focusing on social action formats usually examine various actions that can be carried out with a specific linguistic form (e.g., Betz 2008; Betz et al. 2021; Couper-Kuhlen 2014; Deppermann and Gubina 2021; Gubina 2022; Hoey 2022; Pekarek Doehler 2019; Rossi and Zinken 2016; Raymond 2017). Studies may also begin '''elsewhere''', including, e.g., starting with some interactional "task" or "problem" (like in the field of recruitments; Floyd et al. 2020; Kendrick/Drew 2016), the negotiation of deontic rights (Stevanovic 2013), or the use of embodied resources, such as gaze (Rossano 2012) or facial expressions (Groß et al. 2024; Kaukomaa et al. 2014) - again, to name just a few. | + | There are various analytic pathways for research within Conversation Analysis (CA) and Interactional Linguistics (IL): One can start with a specific '''social action''' and focus, e.g., on how that specific action can be accomplished in a particular language or across different languages.

There are various analytic pathways for research within Conversation Analysis (CA) and Interactional Linguistics (IL): One can start with a specific social action and focus, e.g., on how that specific action can be accomplished in a particular language or across different languages. Commonly, such inquiries begin with actions like requests and instructions (e.g., Curl and Drew 2008; Deppermann 2018; Drew and Couper-Kuhlen 2014; Fox and Heinemann 2016, 2017; Gubina 2021; Mondada 2014; Rossi 2012; Zinken 2016), offers (e.g., Curl 2006; Mandelbaum & Lerner 2023; Mondada 2023; Raymond et al. 2021), proposals (e.g., Thompson et al. 2021), and assessments (e.g., Mondada 2009; Thompson et al. 2015), to mention just a few. Another common strategy is to begin with a (linguistic) form (Couper-Kuhlen & Selting 2001, 2018; Fox 2007), i.e., a recurrent (semi-)linguistic format on different levels of granularity used for accomplishing specific social actions in interaction. Studies focusing on social action formats usually examine various actions that can be carried out with a specific linguistic form (e.g., Betz 2008; Betz et al. 2021; Couper-Kuhlen 2014; Deppermann and Gubina 2021; Gubina 2022; Gubina & Betz 2021; Hoey et al. 2021; Hoey 2022; Küttner 2019, 2020; Oloff 2017, 2018; Pekarek Doehler et al. 2015; Pekarek Doehler 2019; Rossi and Zinken 2016; Raymond 2017). Studies may also begin elsewhere, including, e.g., starting with some interactional "task" or "problem" (like in the field of recruitments; Floyd et al. 2020; Kendrick/Drew 2016), the negotiation of deontic rights (Stevanovic 2013), or the use of embodied resources, such as gaze (Rossano 2012) or facial expressions (Groß et al. 2024; Kaukomaa et al. 2014) - again, to name just a few.
While these different approaches are well-recognized and established in CA and IL research, there is still little methodological discussion of what uniquely characterizes each of them. This Winter School therefore aims at promoting methodological reflections on these different approaches and the concrete analytic decisions and procedures they involve. We envisage an international 3-day workshop, dedicating one full day to practical engagement with each of the aforementioned research strategies:
(1) starting with form(s) (Day 1),
(2) starting with action(s) (Day 2),
(3) starting elsewhere (e.g., an interactional task/problem/outcome, features of the context/setting, identities, etc.) (Day 3).
The school will focus on methodological reflections concerning each of these different approaches, their pros and cons, typical problems, pitfalls, and analytic decisions one is likely to face when choosing one or the other, as well as offering possible solutions for these issues. This should provide early-career researchers (ECRs) with a clearer sense and a greater sensitivity for how the starting point they choose for their investigations may shape the trajectory of the analytic process further down the road.
The participants will be divided into groups according to the languages they speak/can work with (we are expecting German, English, and French groups). Each group will be given a data set in the respective language, which will be prepared by the facilitators, and which will be used throughout the entirety of the workshop. In addition, there will be opportunities for participants to contribute and work with their own data (if available). The idea is that the participants locate a phenomenon of interest and then approach it by starting with a specific form (Day 1), a particular action (Day 2), or from a different angle altogether (e.g., a specific interactional task/problem/outcome, a sequential slot, identity work, etc.) (Day 3). To enable us to better guide this process, we envisage there to be a common focal anchor point for the duration of the workshop that will allow participants to try out different approaches with respect to a common overarching theme—namely, ‘Mobilizing others’.
Each day will consist of
- a plenary talk giving an overview of steps, procedures, and recurrent problems of a specific point of departure/approach,
- intense analytic group work with facilitators, and
- discussion of the problems that the participants find themselves facing with each approach.
The workshop is designed for ECRs engaged in their own initial CA/IL projects who seek guidance, collaborative reflection on the methodological implications of their decisions, and learning about alternative approaches and possible solutions to recurrent problems.
The number of participants is capped to 30 to ensure an intensive scientific exchange and an informal atmosphere.

The total cost of the International Winter School is 200 EUR for unsalaried (post)graduates and 250 EUR for salaried researchers. This cost includes course materials, a Certificate of Attendance, light refreshments for coffee breaks, as well as lunch. It does not include breakfast and dinner, accommodation, or travel.
Due to the limited number of available spaces, participation will be decided via an application process. Applications must be submitted to winterschool_CA_IL(at)ids-mannheim.de and contain the following information, in a single PDF-file (max. 3 pages):
- a description of your prior CA/IL-related work, experience (training, knowledge of transcription conventions, project work, theses, publications, etc.) as well as the name(s) of supervisor(s)
- the topic of your PhD-project (or any other project you are currently working on)
- a concise curriculum vitae
The application deadline is 19 August 2024. Applicants will be notified of their participation status by 26 August 2024.
