Özet

There is a growing research interest in the dynamics of English Medium Instruction (EMI) university classroom

interactions in non-Anglophone contexts. In the present study, we track the procedural unfolding of content

knowledge co-construction across multiple online activities in an online EMI university classroom. Using Multimodal

Conversation Analysis to examine the screen recordings of an undergraduate course on Educational Sciences

at a state EMI university in Türkiye, we show how translanguaging plays a central role in enabling the participants’

displays of content knowledge by deploying multilingual (English, Turkish, the focal EMI university

jargon) and multimodal (i.e., coordinating verbal and multimodal materials on the screen) resources across four

phases of the online class, namely (i) lecturer talk, (ii) pre-task, (iii) task engagement in breakout rooms, and (iv)

sharing outputs in the main room. The study brings implications for higher education EMI classroom interactions

by describing the multilingual, multifaceted, multimodal, and sequential organization of screen-recorded online

environments
