"Drawing on recent sociocultural approaches to research on language learning and an extensive corpus of classroom video recording made over four years, this book documents language learning as an epiphenomenon of peer face-to-face interaction. The research uses methods from conversation analysis with longitudinal data to document practices for interaction between learners and how those practices change over time."--BOOK JACKET.
Industry Reviews
This book offers one of the most persuasive and empirically rich arguments for considering second language acquisition in terms of changes in participation within a community of practice. -- Simona Pekarek Doehler, Professor of Applied Linguistic, University of Neuchatel, Switzerland, President of the European Second Language Association (EUROSLA) This book makes a timely contribution to the ongoing debate as to how CA, either alone or combined with a learning theory, can capture language learning. Hellermann's study proposes one model to follow in this endeavour, and, at the same time, it triggers further questions regarding learners' life outside of the classroom.
