Abstract

This chapter serves two purposes. First, it reviews the existing computer-supported collaborative second-language learning studies. A second purpose of the chapter is to echo Chap. 2 by concentrating on representational tools to present the rationale of social shaping of the technology. Affordances of technology can change depending on the users’ background and contexts. The chapter explains the necessity and possibility of a close analysis of how users (including both teachers and students) appropriate a representational tool for collaborative knowledge construction.
