TALK IN EDUCATIONAL CONTEXTS
Talking facilitates learning, promoting a theory oflearning and cognition that emphasizes language as
the mediator of higher mental processes (see Piaget,1970; Vygotsky, 1978). (p. 429)
Talk is therefore treated as a medium for the
conveying of information, with varying degrees ofeffectiveness, from a speaker to a listener (Maybin,1994: 132), in a transmission model of learning. (p.430)

POWER
The findings suggest that applied critical theoriesare often too simplistic, assuming that power canbe straightforwardly transferred from the
powerful to the powerless. (p. 189)
Heritage (1997) suggests that power may beunderstood in terms of asymmetries that arise
through interaction in institutional settings. (p.194)

IDENTITY
In the past identity was seen as a fixed, stableproperty of the individual psyche (Bucholtz and Hall,2005). (p. 194)
Identity is dynamic, intersubjective, constructed
moment by moment through social interaction, and,at the same time, subject to existing ideologies andperceived social constraints. It also suggests thatidentities are best investigated by examining howparticipants use language in context (Potter and
Wetherell, 1987; Widdicombe and Wooffitt, 1995;Edley and Wetherell, 1997; Antaki and Widdicombe,1998; Wetherell, 1998; Widdicombe, 1998; Coupland,2001; Bucholtz and Hall, 2005). (p. 195)

RELATIONSHIP OF THEM
Recent work in conversation analysis suggeststhat power can be analyzed as a dynamicconstruct that is realized as social identities are
constructed through interaction. (p. 194)The important link between power and identityin this framework is the emphasis on how both of
these social constructs come into play throughdiscursive action. (p. 194)
