Analyzing Language, Examining Power: Discourse Analysis as a Pedagogical Tool

Sat, April 14, 12:25 to 1:55pm, Sheraton New York Times Square, Floor: Second Floor, Empire Ballroom West

Session Type: Workshop

Abstract

In this interactive workshop, scholars will briefly share research conducted in five postsecondary contexts and then divide into small groups for deeper discussion. First, presenters will engage attendees in discussions of how preservice and inservice educators can use discourse analysis (DA) towards their development of critical understandings of students, pedagogy, and policy. The presenters will also reflect on their use of DA as teacher researchers and open up discussions about this second layer of examining language and power through discourse analysis. This workshop will provide an opportunity for presenters and attendees to work together as they consider the research at hand, and to explore how DA may be used to further support practitioner learning in a variety of educational contexts.
