"Bridging Discourses in the ESL Classroom" examines the
interactions between learners and teachers in a content-based
classroom. It aims to identify patterns of discourse which support
both second language development and curriculum learning, and the
pedagogical contexts in which they occur. These interactional
patterns are bridging discourses in that they build on the everyday
language and prior experiences of the student in the process of
developing the specialised academic registers of school. The study
examines the use of these bridging discourses in two case study
classrooms to show how they offer affordances for learning. This
book puts forward an innovative new approach to the analysis of
classroom discourse. Drawing on systemic functional linguistics and
sociocultural theory, it argues that the significance of classroom
talk for second language development can only be understood when it
is examined within its situational, historical and sociocultural
context. The book is recommended for academics and postgraduates
researching applied linguistics and education.
