Abstract

Research in teacher education is a pluridisciplinary field borrowing concepts and theories from other disciplinary fields, particularly from language sciences. To seize their impact and their presence, we analyzed bibliographic references coming from authors in language sciences in articles concerned by teacher education in two international and scientific journals. Based on quantitative analysis, we focused our research on three frequently quoted authors: Mikhaïl Bakhtin, Norman Fairclough and Basil Bernstein. Our contribution aims at proposing a method for understanding the interdisciplinary aspect in teacher education.
