Abstract
As we know, the front is where the teacher’s desk, blackboard and/or a projection screen are located. In this chapter we focus on classroom episodes with “Students at the Front” as an event in which “a student presents information publicly in written form, sometimes accompanied by verbal interaction between the student and the teacher or other students about the written work; other students may attend to this information or work on an assignment privately” (Jablonka, 2006, p. 108).
