dc.description This thesis explores ways in which international teaching assistants use discourse to construct the role of teacher during a mandatory oral English proficiency test administered by the University of Cincinnati. Using an iterative, grounded theory approach to discourse, this study explores the ways in which power, social distance, gender, and culture interact to influence the construction of the teacher role. Thematic analysis of videotaped tests, memo writing, case comparisons, and continual literature review intertwine to unpack how international teaching assistants “bring off” the role of teacher. The discursive management of identification emerges as a key thematic cluster in the construction of the teacher role. en_US
