Rice, J. A.
Business Communication Quarterly, v70 n4 p470-475 2007

However, when trying to incorporate the content of discussions directly into their writing practices, they often experience difficulties linking ethical concepts to writing process. This article discusses how instructors can use online discussion and group writing situations to better integrate ethical concepts with writing strategies.
