This study investigates the classroom talk of Iranian EFL novice versus experienced teachers with emphasis on the quality of communicative features through a linguistic lens provided by the SETT (Self-Evaluation of Teacher Talk) framework and TTFS (Teacher Talk Functional Scale) checklist. In so doing, 10 intermediate-level classrooms running by five novice and five experienced teachers were observed, each case twice. Eight distinctive communicative features of TT emerged upon the initial analysis of database obtained from the audio-recordings of 20 class sessions, totaling 30 hours of naturally generated input. Subsequently, the audio-recorded materials were carefully transcribed and analyzed in correspondence with the observation data in an attempt to compare how novice and experienced teachers present their talk. The results indicated both novice and experienced teachers enact communicative aspects of classroom talk; however, the quality of presentation in the case of the experienced group was far better. This in turn highlights the importance of raising awareness regarding TT features in teacher training courses. New communicative aspects of teacher talk highlighted in this study, including the use of L1 and language gradation, would help define new research paths exploring the classroom discourse. Further research inspired by this study needs to explore other aspects of teacher-student interaction s in various educational settings. Keywords: classroom talk, teacher talk, discourse, novice teachers, teacher education

伊朗EFL新手与经验丰富的老师在课堂上的谈话调查

这项研究调查了伊朗EFL新手与有经验的老师的课堂谈话，并通过SETT（教师谈话自我评估）框架和TTFS（教师谈话功能量表）核对表提供的语言来强调交流功能的质量。这样，观察到由五名新手和五名经验丰富的老师经营的10个中级教室，每个案例两次。通过对20堂课的音频记录进行数据库的初步分析，得出了TT的八种独特的交流功能，总共30个小时自然产生了输入。随后，对录音材料进行了仔细的转录，并根据观察数据进行了分析，试图比较新手和有经验的老师如何发表演讲。结果表明，无论是新手还是经验丰富的老师，都在课堂上进行交流。但是，在经验丰富的小组中，演讲的质量要好得多。这反过来又凸显了在教师培训课程中提高对TT功能的认识的重要性。这项研究中强调的教师话语的新交际方面，包括使用L1和语言等级，将有助于定义探索课堂话语的新研究路径。受本研究启发的进一步研究需要探索各种教育背景下师生互动的其他方面。关键词：课堂谈话，教师谈话，话语，新手教师，教师教育 经验丰富的团队的演讲质量要好得多。这反过来又凸显了在教师培训课程中提高对TT功能的认识的重要性。这项研究中强调的教师话语的新交际方面，包括使用L1和语言等级，将有助于定义探索课堂话语的新研究路径。受本研究启发的进一步研究需要探索各种教育背景下师生互动的其他方面。关键词：课堂谈话，教师谈话，话语，新手教师，教师教育 经验丰富的团队的演讲质量要好得多。这反过来又凸显了在教师培训课程中提高对TT功能的认识的重要性。这项研究中强调的教师话语的新交际方面，包括使用L1和语言等级，将有助于定义探索课堂话语的新研究路径。受本研究启发的进一步研究需要探索各种教育背景下师生互动的其他方面。关键词：课堂谈话，教师谈话，话语，新手教师，教师教育 有助于定义探索课堂话语的新研究路径。受本研究启发的进一步研究需要探索各种教育背景下师生互动的其他方面。关键词：课堂谈话，教师谈话，话语，新手教师，教师教育 有助于定义探索课堂话语的新研究路径。受本研究启发的进一步研究需要探索各种教育背景下师生互动的其他方面。关键词：课堂谈话，教师谈话，话语，新手教师，教师教育
