Work in groups: Does it
matter if the groups are spread out over time and space? What do students
learn from social networking sites? What do students learn from class email
partners? Individual keypals? How should the tasks be structured for learners
to get the most out of class or individual partners?
Role of the teacher: Much
has been done related to conversation at the computer, and some with tandem
class projects and web quests. What happens with different computer-based
activities? What about wireless labs? What really makes distance education
work?
