Final Project: Page limit: 15 pages

This Final Project includes three components: write a discourse/conversation analysis

paper, design a lesson plan, and give a short presentation.

a) You need to go to the Michigan Corpus of Academic English (MICASE)

http://quod.lib.umich.edu/m/micase/. (e.g., If you select ALL for all the criteria when

doing the search in Browse MICASE, you will find a long list of data sets; If you select

the criteria of All Near Native — Advising, you will find two data sets). You choose

one data set of your interest and conduct analysis (less than one hour transcript would be

sufficient). To do so, you must read the transcript multiple times, and then take advantage

of the sociolinguistic perspectives that you have learned from the readings and class

discussions and nail down aspects to conduct analyses in order to reveal communication

rules, patterns, speech act, linguistic features/usage/markers, or behaviors that are

relevant to certain social groups, contexts, speech communities. Based on the analysis,

you will write a report of the patterns and rules found from the data, exact examples to

show the patterns or rules or features are required, and then give evidence based relevant

interpretations and discussions. You need to cite at least 10 external resources or

references to support your analysis. 6-8 pages excluding the reference page and abstract

page will be required. Make sure you indicate the full data set name and criteria you

choose to withdraw the data set in your reference when you cite it.

b) Next, design a 50-minute lesson plan to teach one or two findings that you have

identified in the analysis conducted in a). Use the provided template to guide you to design

the lesson plan.

***Major transcription conventions are provided in the folder called: Final Project
