Abstract

This paper presents a pedagogical framework for computer-mediated communication that comprises the programme environment, the universe of CMC resources, the programme’s CMC environment, pedagogical techniques, and pedagogical styles. The programme environment is defined by the programme’s constraints, demands, and choices; the universe of CMC resources comprises all external and internal CMC resources. As a common subset of these realms, a programme’s CMC environment must be established. Within this CMC environment, programme planners and teachers can utilize a set of pedagogical techniques and pedagogical styles to facilitate learning.
