In this paper we study student interaction in English and Swedish courses
at a Finnish university. We focus on language choices made in task-related
activities in small group interaction. Our research interests arose from the change
in the teaching curriculum, in which content and language courses were integrated
at Tampere University of Technology in 2013. Using conversation analysis, we
analysed groups of 4-5 students who worked collaboratively on a task via a video
conference programme. The results show how language alternation has different
functions in 1) situations where students orient to managing the task, e.g., in
transitions into task, or where they orient to technical problems, and 2) situations
where students accomplish the task. With the results, we aim to show how
language alternation can provide interactional opportunities for language learning.
The findings will be useful in designing tasks in the future. |
