Popis: | Communicating via electronic networks is presented as a unique form of discourse that exists on a continuum between the context‐dependent interaction of oral conversation and the contextually abstracted composition of written text. Electronic networks provide unique opportunities for studying communication, language comprehension, and the effects of feedback on composition. In an attempt to encourage researchers from many disciplines to study electronic discourse and its impact on scholarly communication, relevant research in the fields of cognitive psychology, composition theory, computer science, and information science is reviewed. Because many questions about the ramifications of using electronic discourse as a primary form of scholarly communication remain unanswered, directions for new research are proposed. |
