Through this I showed how Soliya is intentionally designed to offer possibilities for doing ‘identity work’ on different levels, both in terms of situated identities (facilitators and participants) and transportable identities – with reference being made in particular to the identity categories of ‘Westerner’, ‘Muslim’ and ‘non-Muslim’, for these are the identities which the framing of the programme focusses on, and also imagined identities. Before exploring how participants orient to these situated and transportable identities through indexicality and relationality in Chapters 7 and 8, I am going to explore the affordances and constraints of the mediating technologies available for doing identity work in the situated context of this study.","PeriodicalId":296946,"journal":{"name":"Emerging identities in virtual exchange","volume":"28 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-07-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126748340","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This implies that just as contexts and practices can limit opportunities for learners to engage in identity work, contexts and practices can also be designed to offer learners enhanced possibilities for social interaction and positioning. This is one of the aims of virtual exchange as conceptualised in this book. So what kind of virtual exchange contexts can and should we design to offer enhanced possibilities for these kinds of interaction? Here I have explored one particular model of virtual exchange, but of course there is no one solution that ‘fits all’. What I seek to do here in this final chapter is not provide guidelines, but consider some of the implications of this study and ask questions that as educators we can reflect on as we design and integrate virtual exchange into our activity. I then close with recent developments as regards virtual exchange on the policy level, and the implications this has for educators working in the field.","PeriodicalId":296946,"journal":{"name":"Emerging identities in virtual exchange","volume":"130 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-07-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132726208","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It is specifically targeted for the study of identity in online interactions and builds on five key principles. These include the situatedness of interaction and identity work; the mediation of technology in online interactions and identity work; and three principles drawn from the work of Bucholtz and Hall (2005); positionality, indexicality, and relationality. These principles are explained briefly in this chapter, and then each will be explored in further detail in subsequent chapters, drawing on examples from the study of interactions in a specific context of virtual exchange.","PeriodicalId":296946,"journal":{"name":"Emerging identities in virtual exchange","volume":"24 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-07-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126873704","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Individuals are seen to perform and negotiate identities through actions and language, in multiple modes and in diverse times and spaces. Stemming from the social sciences and sparked by societal changes of ‘globalisation’, performative orientations to identity have fed into studies of language teaching and learning. These approaches challenge the assumptions which characterised the structuralist conceptualisations of language, culture, and identity that have characterised foreign language teaching (Firth & Wagner, 1997) and also intercultural education (Dervin, 2013; Dooly & Vallejo Rubinstein, 2017; Phipps, 2014; Piller, 2017).","PeriodicalId":296946,"journal":{"name":"Emerging identities in virtual exchange","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-07-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116851738","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
