  TEACHER-STUDENTS DISCOURSE ANALYSIS IN THE CONTEXT OF ENGLISH TEACHING CLASSES Laura Fernanda Guerrero Castillo  In the context of Indonesia was carried out a particular research to study teacher and student discourse based on the necessity of really understanding that interaction in order to improve the English teaching-learning process. Initially, they mention that there was 'malpractice’ of English language learning in the classroom in Indonesia. This kind of activity is suspected to be the cause of English teaching becoming less successful. And the main reason to analyze this teacher-student interaction during English class is that Research on classroom discourse is important since it is a mediator between social practice and actual practice in the classroom. Through the use of critical theory to describe, interpret, and explain the classroom interaction. It seems more appropriate to examine the class discourse to discover the nature of the discourse practices used by te...

  How do I do discourse analysis?  Laura Fernanda Guerrero Castillo When we talk about discourse analysis, it ought ideally to be an interdisciplinary undertaking. This follows from the conception of discourse as an interest in the properties of texts, the production, distribution, and consumption of texts. These facets of discourse impinge upon the concerns of various social sciences and humanities, including linguistics, psychology and social psychology, sociology, history, and political science. Research projects in discourse analysis are, therefore, most sensibly defined first in terms of questions about particular forms of social practice, and their relations to social structure; given the focus I have been adopting, in terms of particular aspects of social or cultural change. Discourse analysis should best be regarded as a method for conducting research into questions that are defined outside it. When talking about the corpus, the nature of the data required will vary ac...

  DISCOURSE ANALYSIS TO ME People from different disciplines use the term "discourse analysis" for what they do, how they do it, or both. Even when It might appear that they have nothing in common, one way or another, they all involve studying language and its effects. So, could we say that discourse analysis is simply the study of language and its effects? For example,  (Tannen, 1989: 6) suggests that "the name for the field 'discourse analysis' ... says nothing more or other than the term 'linguistics': the study of language".  And this is exactly correct: discourse analysis is the study of language, in the everyday sense, in which most people use the term. What most people mean when they say "language" is talk, communication, and discourse. (In formal language study, both descriptive and prescriptive, the term "language" is often used differently, to refer to structures or rules that are thought to underlie talk.) Even if disco...

According to Sposky (1999,p,1), educational linguistics could be understood as the confluence of multiple tributaries where applied linguistics has connections with education and psycholinguistics. At the same time, The Concise Encyclopedia of Educational Linguistics defines it as the intersection of language and education, where its task is to define the knowledge of varied branches or areas of study that range from pronunciation and intonation of words and phrases to sentence grammar, to different types of the text of the scientific study of language including formal and informal education. In other words, educational linguistics is concerned with every aspect of educational activity where language is involved. Education, it could be defined in individual development or in social terms. Halliday(1999,p.2) mentions that education means enabling people to learn in an organized, progressive, and systematic manner. In a similar vein, Stenhouse(1967,p.60) considers that education is consc...
