Ryan, Jonathon – ELT Journal, 2022
For many language learners, listening represents a major source of anguish, with apparent success in the confines of the classroom failing to be mirrored in the ordinary interactions of daily life.

Wilmes, Sara E. D.; Siry, Christina – Research in Science Education, 2021
Science teaching and learning are discursive practices, yet analysis of these practices has frequently been grounded in theorizations that place language at the forefront of interaction and meaning-making. Such language-centric analytic approaches risk overlooking key embodied, enacted aspects of students' engagement in science practices. This…

Hall, Joan Kelly – Language Teaching, 2022
A great deal of research on second language (L2) input has provided useful linguistic evidence for the development of generalizations about and hypotheses on the usage-based nature of L2 knowledge. However, despite the fact that classrooms are one of the most ubiquitous sites of L2 learning, we still know very little about the linguistic quality…

Ingram, Jenni; Andrews, Nick; Pitt, Andrea – Educational Studies in Mathematics, 2019
The act of explaining can help students to develop new understandings of mathematical ideas, construct rules for solving problems, become aware of misunderstandings or a lack of understanding and develop their mathematical communication. Their explanations can also offer opportunities for a teacher to understand more fully what the students are…

What makes a productive mathematics discussion? Who does the talking? Whose ideas are taken up? Can a student question take the lesson in an unexpected but valuable direction? What does it mean to be responsive to students' mathematical thinking? These questions intrigued the authors as teachers, teacher educators, and researchers, and they…

Hansun Zhang Waring – Educational Linguistics, 2021
To a large extent, the quality of classroom communication hinges on the teacher's ability to tune in and respond to emerging students' voices, which requires the astuteness and agility to hear layered messages, offer tailored assistance, and follow students' leads. It requires responding to multiple contingencies in real time. One important…

Yo-An Lee – Educational Linguistics, 2021
While discourse studies have uncovered regular structural patterns in classroom interactions, these patterns are often the result of interpretive decisions teachers make in performing various pedagogical actions. Notably, however, teachers' instructional decisions often stretch beyond topical boundaries and are thus not limited to the current…
