At Framingham State University, the ASL/English interpreting curriculum includes a half-credit course entitled Communication Dynamics in Interpreted Encounters. This junior-year course explores concepts from the discipline of communications that are relevant to the work of interpreters. Among the concepts explored are: identity and frames, participation framework, facework and politeness strategies, and rapport management. In the modules on facework and politeness strategies, students analyze a video obtained from digiterp.com entitled “In Trouble at School” in which a high-school counselor (non-Deaf) is meeting with a parent (Deaf) regarding her son’s use of marijuana on school grounds. After covering the concepts of facework and politeness strategies in class, students watch/listen to the encounter between the parent and the counselor and identify positive, negative, and off-the-record politeness strategies used by the counselor and the mother as they negotiate their way to an agreement as to how to handle the consequences of this infraction of school policy. The poster will present a summary description of positive and negative face and the politeness strategies used to meet an interlocutor’s face needs, the assignment prompts, and samples of student work. The source video will be available for viewing.
