Popis | Building on a dataset of 66 video-recorded pair and group EFL oral proficiency tests collected at a university in Czechia, I employ multimodal conversation analysis (Goodwin, 2018) to analyse instances in which candidates transition from one task prompt to another. Specifically, we demonstrate how the candidates' embodied orientations to the worksheet provide affordances for displaying their interactional repertoires (Hall, 2018) for closing, initiating, and developing a topic in a manner which is comparable, and hence testable across various performances. These findings contribute to the body of research operationalising the construct of L2 interactional competence for assessment purposes (Galaczi & Taylor, 2018; Malabarba & Betz, 2023). |
