- テーマ
- I am analysing subject position and pedagogic identity of Japanese learners studying Spanish as a foreign language in communicative learning settings in Japan at the tertiary level. To this aim I use both Basil Bernstein's theory of code and post-Vygostkian analytical frameworks (CHAT/Sociocultural Theory), especially CHAT's structure of activity. My research is an attempt to recontextualise the issue of explicit and implicit instruction in Second Language Acquisition (the code-communication dilemma) by bringing together Bernstein's educational sociology and post-Vygotskian approaches to analysing learning.

- 内容
- My interests deal with acquirers' trajectories and orientations to meaning (and action) in understanding second (foreign) language acquisition. I am concerned with the relationship between certain organisational/pedagogical contexts and the pedagogical identities of transmitters and acquirers. I am interested in developing new research tools to analyse language learning at structural (organisational) and interactional (discursive) level and developing feasible interventions that can improve acquirers' language acquisition.
