“Don't touch”
In peer interactions within educational settings, students touch each other to display affection, to build a sense of togetherness and to manage each other's participation. On the other hand, embodied acts between students can also be physically forceful, embarrassing, or feel uncomfortable. While certain touch types such as caressing, stroking and tapping are typically associated with displays of affection, all touches are situated, and particip…
Intercorporeal Construction of We-Ness in Classroom Interaction
Drawing on multimodal conversation analysis as a method, this article explores the role of embodiment and tactility in negotiating peer relations in classroom interaction. We aim at discussing how social relations between peers are locally constructed and negotiated through embodied, tactile-haptic, and spatial practices during classroom activities. The focus of the empirical analysis is on how students sequentially co-construct specific peer-to-…
Student-to-student hand-on-shoulder touch as an embodied response to reproach and critical teacher evaluation
This article explores embodied responses to teacher reproaches during classroom interaction. Drawing on multimodal conversation analysis as a method, the analysis focuses on teacher-initiated reproach-sequences and particularly on the specific touch type that is produced within the sequence: student-to-student hand-on-shoulder touch. In the analyzed sequences, the teacher reproach or critical evaluation is addressed to an individual student who r…

Swearing as a method of antipedagogy in workshops of rap lyrics for ‘failing boys’ in vocational education
Public debates in Finland on the unwillingness of boys to learning literacy have called for masculine role models to promote reading. This article analyses a privately funded project where two adult males lead a series of gangsta rap workshops during the Finnish language and communication lessons. The workshops were aimed at students in male-dominated fields in vocational education and training (VET). From a methodological perspective, this study…

Prosodic imitation as a means of receiving and displaying a critical stance in classroom interaction
This paper investigates (Finnish) classroom interaction and explores the displays of stance and the rules of emotion in this institutional multi-party setting. The main focus of the analysis is on teacher's imitation of students' talk. The starting point is to analyze stance as a situated practice in the sequential organization of interaction, in particular in sequences that contain criticism. Although it is quite common for teachers and students…
Prosodic imitation in classroom interaction
This article presents an analysis of how Finnish teenagers use prosodic imitation in their classroom interaction. The data consists of video recordings (14 lessons) of naturally occurring classroom interaction in junior secondary schools (students aged 13-15). The study is conducted by applying conversation analysis (CA). The prosodic imitation I explore involves the turns-at-talk that orient prosodically to the preceding turns in terms of, for e…
When Shall We Go for a Ride?' a Case of the Sexual Harassment of a Young Girl
In this article, I explore the benefits and limits of conversation analysis for the analysis of a conversation that has been labelled (post-hoc) as an instance of `sexual harassment'. The data analysed is a phone call between a 15-year-old girl and a male Member of Parliament. I explore how `harassment-in-action' may be embedded in the mundane procedures of talk. Analysis of the MP's strategies to pursue the girl's acceptance of his invitation to…
