Abstract

Previous research under the communicational framework has started developing
systematic methods that unify the study of cognitive, affective and social aspects of
learning under a single set of theoretical assumptions. This study enhances the
communicational methodology into the quantifiable domain, thus enabling analysis of
large quantities of classroom talk and comparisons between teachers to study identity
construction processes in the mathematics classroom. We demonstrate three forms of
discourse analysis: qualitative, ‘coding and counting’ and corpus analysis to analyze
the ways in which two instructors at a teachers’ college differ in their “identifying
talk” or the way they construct their students’ identities. Differences between the two
instructors were ostensible in all forms of analysis
