This article examines features of electronic mail discourse among sixth‐grade students and their teachers. Face‐to‐face and electronic interactions were observed at a school over a 2‐year period before and after the implementation of a local area network system that supported both local and long‐distance communication. Face‐to‐face and electronic conversations were often interwoven. Electronic mail shared many characteristics with other communication media such as the use of metacommunication, print genres, and the recognition of social status. Electronic mail discourse differed from face‐to‐face discourse in terms of who initiated turns and topics, the time frame for responses, privacy, and access to others. Taken together, these similarities and differences resulted in hybrid discourse features that hold promise for creating alternative classroom structures. [ABSTRACT FROM PUBLISHER] |
