Locating Latanya: The Situated Production of Identity Artifacts in Classroom Interaction

Kevin M. Leander Vanderbilt University

Abstract

While social constructivist interpretations have advanced a relational, multiple, and fluid conception of identity, one difficult problem involves understanding how identities are stabilized during the course of interaction. This article argues that interactants define and stabilize identity by producing identity artifacts with multimodal means, by constructing configurations of those artifacts, and by using those artifacts to project social space.
