Introduction
The term classroom interaction refers to the interaction between the teacher and learners, and amongst the learners, in the classroom. Earlier studies of second language classroom interaction focused on the language used by the teacher and learners the interaction generated, and their effect on L2 learning

• In contrast, more student-centered classes provide adequate time during activities for students to think about concepts, receive feedback, and/or participate in discussions that may guide the direction of the lesson.
• Some activities may allow students freedom to engage in their own learning
(e.g., online search for relevant information)• and/or may involve the students using the instructor as a resource
to provide information as needed. This "guide-on-the-side" model is indicative of highly reformed, student-centered classrooms.
Characteristics of Classroom Interaction

• Contains activities where the instructor can receive student feedback to determine if there is a need to adapt the direction of the lesson.
• Have multiple opportunities for interaction between the instructor, individual students, small student groups, and the whole class.
• Capitalizes on the diversity of student experiences to generate alternative solutions to (open-ended) problems and to explore student ideas within the context of the lesson.
• Includes sufficient time to have meaningful discussions around student activities and arrive at fully realized responses
Structuring of Classroom Interaction
![Page 9: Classroom Interaction](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022081414/5880d65b1a28ab9c3a8b61bd/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
THE IMPORTANCE OF CLASSROOM TALK AND INTERACTION
• Studies conducted on classroom interaction have shown that student talk accounts for an average of less than 30 per cent of talk in ‘teacher-fronted’ classrooms.
• Yet studies on language and learning have shown that children not only learn to talk but they also talk to learn. This can be seen from the fact that children are persistent questioners; it is by asking questions that they explore and learn about the world around them.
• However, studies have shown that the number of questions asked by children drops significantly as soon as they enter school
