Description
Summary:The current study analyses the distribution of students and teachers talk and the interactional construction of personal experience narratives produced by 6th grade students during a series of Dialogic Literary Gatherings. The data corpus consists of 6 videotaped Dialogic Literary Gatherings in a public primary school in the province of Santa Fe, Argentina. The school is attended by children belonging to suburban and vulnerable populations. For the analysis, quantitative and qualitative procedures were used. The results showed that the talk distribution configured in the Dialogic Literary Gatherings does not differ from the characteristic talk distribution in school activities and that in order to construct personal narratives the students lean on fragments of the text, others student’s narratives and teacher’s questions.
