This paper, from the analysis of the specific events of language in "identity construction","identity crisis","identity"of the different representation,designed to emphasize both the language as a tool of communication or as a kind of cultural and the identity of the person is having close immanent connection.

Evidence on the fundamental role that usage plays in shaping individual language knowledge is no doubt compelling. However, while the force of social interaction in shaping language knowledge is acknowledged, missing are specifications of the jointly constructed actions and courses of action comprising social contexts of use. Also missing is a reconsideration of key SLA concepts engendered by a usage-based understanding of language. The intent of this paper is to redress these limitations. First, I summarize the research programs of conversation analysis and interactional linguistics, which take as their central task the specifications of the jointly constructed actions and courses of action comprising social contexts and thus significantly enhance a usage-based understanding of language. Then, arguing that more suitable conceptual tools are needed to better capture current understandings of language knowledge and objects of L2 learning, I offer repertoire, semiotic resources, and register as alternative terms to competence and grammar. I conclude with a proposal for a Conversation Analysis/Interactional Linguistics-based research program for further advancing understandings of SLA and transforming understandings of L2 pedagogy.

Based on a sociocultural perspective of language and learning, the studies are drawn from three types of classrooms: first language classrooms; second language classrooms, which include contexts in which the language being learned in the classroom is also the language of the community; and foreign language classrooms. Foreign language learning contexts are those in which exposure to and opportunities for target language interaction are restricted for the most part to the language classroom. Across these three areas, attention is given to studies that investigate the specific means used in teacher-student interaction to promote language learning.

The cohort collaboratively designed experiences, responsibilities, and concessions for student teachers to facilitate the development of reciprocal relationships. The study identifies elements that enhanced or hindered reciprocity in the teaching relationship. This report emphasizes the responsibility each member of the cooperating teacher-student teacher pair has to cultivate reciprocity. It concludes with a discussion of how teacher educators can promote the success of the student teaching experience and with suggestions for future research in foreign language teacher development.

Social relations, knowledge structures, and webs of power are experienced by many people as highly mobile and interconnected-for good and for bad-as a result of broad sociopolitical events and global markets. As a consequence, today's multilingualism is enmeshed in globalization, technologization, and mobility. Communication and meaning-making are often felt as deterritorialized, that is, lived as something "which does not belong to one locality but which organizes translocal trajectories and wider spaces" (Blommaert, 2010, p. 46), while language use and learning are seen as emergent, dynamic, unpredictable, open ended, and intersubjectively negotiated. In this context, increasingly numerous and more diverse populations of adults and youth become multilingual and transcultural later in life, either by elective choice or by forced circumstances, or for a mixture of reasons. They must learn to negotiate complex demands and opportunities for varied, emergent competencies across their languages. Understanding such learning requires the integrative consideration of learners' mental and neurobiological processing, remembering and categorizing patterns, and momentto-moment use of language in conjunction with a variety of socioemotional, sociocultural, sociopolitical, and ideological factors. The field of second language acquisition (SLA) seeks (a) to understand the processes by which school-aged children, adolescents, and adults learn and use, at any point in life, an additional language, including second, foreign,

In this paper, I first overview the framework, and then lay out eight fundamental themes on language and learning that derive from the framework and offer action possibilities for research. Finally, I offer six implications arising from the themes for L2 teaching.
