Student/Teacher Interaction via Email: The Social Context of Internet Discourse.
Bloch, Joel
Journal of Second Language Writing, v11 n2 p117-34 May 2002
Examines the way students in a graduate-level English-as-a-Second-Language course used email on their own initiative to interact with their instructor. Analyzes 120 messages to the instructor and categorizes them into four areas: (1) phatic communication; (2)asking for help; (3) making excuses; (4) making formal requests. (Author/VWL)
