Resumen de “Of course I’m married!”: Communicative Strategies and Transcription-Related Issues in Video-Mediated Interactions
In multimodal approaches to communication, transcription and annotation have proved essential to address research questions focused on the study of video data, even though multimodal transcriptions are usually very thick and complex. However, even though the transcription of an excerpt of such data is extremely time consuming, this practice is crucial to explore how resources work concurrently and how they are orchestrated to make meanings. The production of meaning is a typical concern for multimodal studies and can be specifically addressed by unpacking the several resources that come into play in interaction: transcription is a way to respond to such concerns. In this chapter, video data plus transcriptions and comments developed by students participating in a research project will be analysed and discussed to show how transcription of video-mediated interactions in educational contexts can be useful to unveil students’ ideologies in language representations, for example prioritizing written over spoken language.
