This paper explores the potential benefits of online discussion forums with regard to promoting reflective discourse in the Canadian adult literacy community. Given the geographical disparity of practitioners and a historical scarcity of resources, there has been very little opportunity for stakeholders to engage in collaborative activities until recently. Computer-mediated communication now provides a cost-effective alternative to face-to-face discussions or video/audio-conferencing. Moreover, in comparison to other methods dialogue via asynchronous forums evolves over time. This will, in all likelihood, contribute greatly to the development of practitioners and the expansion of the knowledge base of the field. |
