The objectives of the study were to (1) determine the structure of lecture introductions; (2) identify the frequencies of the types of personal pronouns used by the lecturers to active students' prior knowledge; and (3) analyse the types and functions of questions asked by the lecturers during lecture introductions, and student responses to these questions. Forty-seven lecture introduction sessions were audiotaped and analysed based on Schuck's (1970), Davies's (1981), Rounds's (1985; 1987a; 1987b) and Athanasiadou's (1991) framewoks.
