Abstract: AbstractsOne of the major shifts in education today under the influence of information and communication technologies is that there is an increased tendency toward the use of computer-mediated communications (CMC). CMC has developed an assortment of methods from simple e-mail to wireless instant messages and synchronous and asynchronous discussions. A large portion of the research in this area focuses on the pedagogical aspects of CMC particularly on the use, strategies, effectiveness and the integration of th… Show more

“…Many studies have suggested that proper use of asynchronous online discussion in conventional formal learning environments engages learners and improves performance (Brewer & Klein, 2006;Chen & Chiu, 2008;Cheung & Hew, 2004;Hew et al, 2010;Khine, Yeap, & Chin Lok, 2003;Oliver & Shaw, 2003). Learners in these studies had similar backgrounds; for example, all learners were pre-service teachers (Cheung & Hew, 2004;Hew et al, 2010;Khine et al, 2003;Vonderwell, 2003) or had similar academic backgrounds: business (Brewer & Klein, 2006), mathematics (Chen & Chiu, 2008) and health science (Masters & Oberprieler, 2004;Oliver & Shaw, 2003).…”

“…There was no data, however, to indicate what exactly was enhanced. Other research indicates that the learner's perception of the target culture may be less positive after, rather than before, a CMC cultural exchange (Meagher & Castaños, 1996), that the number of email assisted intercultural projects may impede intercultural communication (Ting-Toomey, 1999), and that technology can both enable or constrain learning in this environment (Khine, Yeap, & Chin Lok, 2003). Meagher and Castaños (1996) studied the impact of CMC cultural exchange on Mexican high school students' perceptions of American culture.…”

“…With the development of computer-mediated communication (CMC), computers are now connected world-wide. Social activities become more convenient and flexible through the support of CMC (Khine, Yeap & Tan, 2003). Students may still use computers individually.…”
