Contribution
Drawing on examples from a study on language teaching, the paper shows how a careful reading of the data can unveil different levels of evidence in the empirical material, e.g. historical traces of different concepts of language (from Quintilian to Chomsky and beyond). Reducing the material to simplified performance tasks is at risk to undercut the didactical meaning of the substance taught, and thereby to produce a misconception of the actual learning going on when a content is (trans-)positioned into the context of a class-room. The question is then how to combine different levels of evidence to get a more accurate picture of teaching and learning and its outcomes.
