"Virtual" Learning Communities beyond the Classroom: Perceptions of Tertiary Chinese Language and Non-language Learners.
Ramsay, Guy
Australian Review of Applied Linguistics, Series S n17 p3-24 2003
Investigates learner perceptions of the use of asynchronous computer-mediated communication (CMC) as a means of extending the community of learning in tertiary Chinese language and non-language courses. Finds that there exist pedagogical benefits in employing CMC, but the benefits do not necessarily arise from community building. (VWL)
