| Summary: | Classroom interaction has been considered one of the most important pedagogical
research topics in language classrooms in recent decades, mostly due to the influence of the
Russian psychologist Lev Vygotsky. Interactions in language classrooms are important social
activities for students through which they not only construct knowledge, but also build
confdence and identity as competent language users. Many research methodologies have
been employed to investigate English language teaching (ELT) classroom interaction. This
paper aims to provide a review of the conceptualization of classroom interaction. It also states
the conception of classroom interaction from second language acquisition theories. Besides
reviewing defnitions of classroom interaction, this paper also focuses on how ELT classroom
interactions have been researched in the literature. From that, researches in relation to
classroom interaction in classes that use English as a medium of instruction (EMI) are presented. |
