Gesture and Speech in the Vocabulary Explanations of One ESL Teacher: A Microanalytic Inquiry

Lazaraton, Anne·2004·Language Learning

Abstract

This article takes a microanalytic perspective on the speech and gestures used by one teacher of English as a second Language in her intensive English program classroom. Videotaped excerpts from her intermediate‐level grammar course were transcribed to represent the speech, gesture, and other nonverbal behavior that accompanied unplanned explanations of vocabulary that arose during three focus‐on‐form lessons. The gesture classification system of McNeill (1992), which delineates different types of hand movements (iconics, metaphorics, deictics, beats), was used to understand the role the gestures played in these explanations. Results suggest that gestures and other nonverbal behavior are forms of input to classroom second Language learners that must be considered a salient factor in classroom‐based second Language acquisition research.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
