Studying Interaction, 7,5 ECTS The Department of Swedish Language and Multilingualism offers this course as part of the Doctoral School in the Humanities in the spring semester 2023. Course content The course provides an historical overview of the development of interaction research from the 1960s until the present day with a special focus on classic, groundbreaking interactional research studies which demonstrate how the field has developed within three overarching themes: from unimodality to multimodality; from social membership categorization to identity construction and from monolingualism to multilingualism. The course addresses empirical studies as examples of interaction research in different contexts, such as everyday and working life, as well as social and educational contexts and actualizes interaction from a multidimensional, multimodal perspective. In addition, the course aims to develop the participants’ practical skills and ability to formulate scientific questions and to perform interactional analyzes and to present their analytical findings orally to an imaginary audience with authority. This also enhances the participants’ ability to make research ethic assessments. Professor Peter Auer, Albert-Ludwigs Universität, Freiburg, is guest professor at the Department of Swedish Language and Multilingualism during 2022–2023. Professor Auer will be part of the course and also engage in tutorials with the PhD students to discuss their individual thesis work.
