A partir d'enregistrements sonores de conversations en anglais entre des locuteurs natifs et non-natifs (suedois) et d'autres entre non-natifs et non-natifs (suedois), l'A. pointe la regularite des comportements (correction, rectification) et analyse les facteurs qui affectent l'usage de la langue (relations entre locuteurs, identites). Il montre ainsi que la methodologie de l'analyse conversationnelle peut etre pertinente pour l'etude de l'apprentissage d'une langue seconde en interaction.

The VRS facilitates calls between a person using signed language via a videophone and a person who is speaking via a telephone. An interpreter handles the calls and simultaneously interprets between the users and has direct contact with both users. All participants are physically separated from each other. The data consist of 12 recordings from the regular VRS in Sweden and the method used is Conversation Analysis. The findings show that typed text is used to: 1) conduct a repair; 2) pre-empt problems; 3) recycle text; and 4) overcome language differences.

More specifically, the study deals withthe part of the assessment in which tests of cogniƟve funcƟoning are carried out. Within such tests, various artefacts areused, such as pen, paper, pictures and other objects (e.g. a torch, a comb etc.). The use of these artefacts is constrainedby the formal nature of the test, i.e. quesƟons are to be asked in a specific way in order for test answers to count as valid.However, due to mulƟlingual and mulƟcultural aspects of the context, and the fact that the interacƟon between clinicianand paƟent is mediated by an interpreter, parƟcipants are faced with many challenges. In the current presentaƟon,we will demonstrate, by means of mulƟmodal interacƟon analysis, ho...

Active participation in social interaction is an important factor for children’s cognitive development and the advancement of linguistic and social skills. The aim of the study was to identify components in interaction in everyday school settings that manifested themselves as active participation for the children. Three different settings were analyzed for each child: interaction with a peer, a lecture situation with an adult, and a formalized role-play situation. The study identified a number of practices which induce active participation of the child who uses AAC. Practices that are conducive for active participation include relinquishing time and space for the child who uses AAC to be in control of the interaction. It entails to actively invite the child who uses AAC, or other children to be involved in the interaction. A...
