Transformative Voices Within and Beyond Feedback Engagement
摘要
Building on the previous chapter’s analysis of how students engage with various voices in constructing their feedback responses, this chapter presents the fourth-phase study, focusing on transformative voices within and beyond feedback engagement through the lens of Bakhtin’s (The dialogic imagination: Four essays (M. Holquist, Ed.; C. Emerson & M. Holquist, Trans.), University of Texas Press, 1981) dialogic construct of chronotope. Transformative voices refer to those evidenced to have brought or are bringing in-depth transformation towards the students’ ideologies that impact not only their feedback engagement but also their ideologies and self-consciousness of who they are and who they want to become. Building on data from the second round of interviews with the same six participants, this chapter uncovers two types of transformative voices: those that are shared among all participants and those unique to specific individuals. The results also reveal how students’ prioritisation of space, future goals, and past experiences interrelate to influence the transformative impact of the voices they assimilate or are in the process of assimilating.
