研究上の興味・関心：

連鎖的に組織された相互行為空間の中で教え、学ぶことの「間身体性」(intercorporeality)「多感覚性」(multisensoriality) について、また、マルチモーダル会話分析 (CA) の知見を言語教育の現場に応用することに興味があります。博士論文では、音楽やスポーツ等のパフォーマンス場面における訂正・教示連鎖を分析しました。現在は、ライフスタイル・スポーツに焦点を置いて研究しています。

現在の関心：

  • ライフスタイル・スポーツ、特にスケートボードにおける「遊び」と「学び」の関係性について
  • スケートボード文化における秩序の社会的達成、参加者が身体や道具に与える意味づけ
  • マルチモーダル会話分析 (CA) とエスノグラフィーの手法を組み合わせ、これらを相互行為的視座から特定すること

    <jats:p>
    Employing multimodal conversation analysis, this article examines a single episode of interaction taken from a studio session, during which two musicians check a chord progression. It illustrates how intra-activity micro-transitions are solely achieved through embodied actions. The detailed analysis reveals (a) how the suspension of “playing-along” is occasioned to exhibit participants’ orientation to auditory objects whose “turning-on” makes relevant disengagement from other interactional involvements; and (b) how the temporal complexities of multiactivity are contingently managed in exclusive order, explicating (c) members’ embodied practices for working around the organizational constraints of the auditory objects.

  • Enacting burikko

    　View Summary

    <jats:title>Abstract</jats:title>
    <jats:p>Adopting a single case analysis, this article examines how the learning of the Japanese word <jats:italic>burikko</jats:italic> is occasioned in a bilingual lunch conversation through enactments that are employed for three interactional purposes: (a) renewal of laughter, (b) vocabulary explanation (VE), and (c) demonstration of understanding. The interactional analysis is enhanced by Praat to respecify the role of prosody in enactments. I first describe how <jats:italic>burikko</jats:italic>, the <jats:italic>laughable</jats:italic> of a humor sequence, becomes a <jats:italic>learnable</jats:italic> through a repair sequence. I then analyze a reinitiated joking sequence, where the VE recipient categorizes one of the co-participants as <jats:italic>burikko</jats:italic> and escalates the categorization through multimodal enactments. I argue that this jocular mockery, occasioning a demonstration of understanding, exhibits that the learning opportunity has been taken. Furthermore, I discuss how a repair work embedded within a larger humor-oriented activity may afford resources for language learning outside of the classroom, while sacrificing progressivity for intersubjectivity. The fact that the VE recipient, after intersubjectivity has been achieved, resumes the original activity of pursuing humor through the same means employed for the explanation of the target word offers interesting implications for CA-SLA and pragmatics.</jats:p>
