Multiple lenses for looking at teachers’ identifying talk in a mathematics classroom

Abstract

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