The Reflective Colleague in E-Mail Cyberspace: A Means for Improving University Instruction.
Russell, Anne L.; Cohen, Leonora M.
Computers & Education, v29 n4 p137-45 Dec 1997
E-mail provides a medium for maintaining dialogs between university colleagues that is rapid yet allows reflection, that is spontaneous yet provides a permanent and accurate record. This article describes e-mail communications between "reflective colleagues" in Australia and Oregon during a 10-week course and discusses the benefits to both partners for improving university instruction.
