Abstract

ABSTRACT Despite the substantial growth of research on identity construction in real-life contexts, little is known about PhD students’ online identities, especially their identity shift from real-life to virtual contexts. The present study aimed to address this gap by examining the identity development of ten PhD students from the field of Applied Linguistics during the Covid-19 pandemic, by adopting narrative inquiry. Data analysis revealed that PhD students’ identity was marked by four major components including professional development, sense of self-development, social interactions in community of practice, and their perceptions. The study concludes with implications for both PhD students, administrators and instructors by raising their awareness of the importance of facilitating the change from face-to-face to online contexts.

面对面和网络环境下博士生的身份建构

摘要尽管在现实生活中对身份建构的研究有了长足的发展，但对博士生的网络身份，尤其是他们从现实生活到虚拟环境的身份转变知之甚少。本研究旨在通过采用叙述性探究的方式，研究新冠肺炎大流行期间应用语言学领域十名博士生的身份发展，以解决这一差距。数据分析显示，博士生的身份由四个主要组成部分组成，包括专业发展、自我发展感、实践社区中的社会互动和他们的感知。该研究的结论是，通过提高博士生、管理人员和讲师对促进从面对面环境向在线环境转变的重要性的认识，对他们都有启示。

期刊介绍： Throughout the world, there is a growing awareness of the significance of vocational and post-compulsory education and training systems. The majority of countries are working hard to develop their provision, recognising the importance of post-compulsory education in providing educated and skilled people in sufficient numbers at appropriate levels to assist economic and social development. Research in Post-Compulsory Education, sponsored by the United Kingdom"s Further Education Research Association (FERA), recognises the need for more international research and analysis and the generation of relevant theory in order to identify policy needs and trends as well as priorities in this growing area.
