Linguistic encoding and decoding in workplace interactions between refugees and German instructors
- This article reports on a study of instructional interactions in professional training measures for refugees in Germany. These kinds of measures are now widely used in order to prepare refugees for the German labor market. Based on ethnographic fieldwork, the multimodal interaction analysis of video-recorded instructional sequences is used. The study focuses on how problems of mutual understanding appear and develop in these interactions between the German instructors and the refugees. Most of the refugees included in the study have not yet taken part in an "integration course" (which is deemed to support the learning of German as a second language up to level CEFR-B1). Therefore, the study mainly focuses on the instructors' actions, analyzing them in the sequential context of the interaction with the refugees. The study draws on 22 hour video-recordings of practical instructions in workplace settings (wood- and metal-working, and cooking).
