The third study group meeting had 8 participants, including those who showed up last week and a new comer: Prof. Cheng from Chia-tung U.
Instead of posting questions by me, we started the meeting by eliciting key issues members would like to talk about. The issues include:
1. the gap between teachers and students ("cross-generational" digital divide, culture of use for email and IM)
2. the net generation
3. how to research/plan about data collection
4. how feasible it is to use the technologies in our EFL environment
5. conversational agent
(Others? Can somebody help me remember?)
We think Thorne is a good writer. Although he uses many terms and formal words which are not familiar to us, his discussion is well organized and ideas interesting. The interact nature of SCT also makes us feel necessary to emphasize dialogues. A question raised at the meeting was what we want to dialogue with him about. We agreed to post our questions/issues/comments here. Let's use the "comments" function.
