L۲ Classroom Interaction: Review of Two Approaches

Much research on second language (L۲) classroom interaction adopts purely linguistic approaches. Nevertheless, with more studies of discourse, social interaction, and second language acquisition, conversation analysis (CA) methodology has been utilized to analyse this type of institutional talk. This paper provides a literature review of two approaches to L۲ classroom interaction: conversation analysis (CA) and discourse analysis (DA). By examining the two approaches, their strengths and limitations are highlighted in an attempt to discern the most dynamic approach that informs the different varieties of communication in the L۲ classroom context.
