About the Book

This volume explores a relational pattern that occurs during one type of speech event - classroom "participant examples". A participant example describes, as an example of something, an event that includes at least one person also participating in the conversation. Participants with a role in the example have two relevant identities - as a student or teacher in the classroom, and as a character in whatever event is described as the example. This study reports that, in some cases, speakers not only discuss, but also act out the roles assigned to them in participant examples. That is, speakers do, with each other, what they are talking about as the content of the example. Participants act as if events described as the example provide a script for their interaction. Drawing on linguistic pragmatics and interactional sociolinguistics, the author describes the linguistic mechanisms that speakers use to act out participant examples. He focuses on the role of deictics, and personal pronouns in particular, in establishing and organizing relationships. The volume also presents a new methodological technique - "deictic mapping" - that can be used to uncover interactional organization in all sorts of speech events. Drawing on the philosophy and sociology of education, this volume discusses the social and educational implications of enacted partipant examples. Educational theorists generally find participant examples to be cognitively useful as devices to help students understand pedagogical content. But enacted participant examples have systematic relational consequences as well. This volume presents and discusses participant examples that have clear, and sometimes undesirable, social consequences. It also discusses how it might be possible to adjust educational theory and practice, given the relational implications of classroom participant examples.
