This publication examines spoken language as a field of study,
looking at the various ways in which we can both theorize the place
of talk in education, and examine the way talk is actually done in
educational settings. Given the centrality of literacy-based
practices in schools, a book focusing on talk brings quite
different and important perspectives to the study of education.
Talk is something that has all too often been devalued and taken
for granted. What becomes evident throughout the papers included in
this volume is that talk is of central importance in establishing
identities and the cultures in which those identities are located.
However, because we are unused to reflexively examining the way we
talk, there is a serious disjuncture between what we believe talk
should achieve and what can be seen to be achieved in actual talk
in educational settings.
