Abstract
With the help of social network
analysis and the concept of 'community of
practice', this paper reports on the patterns of
interaction and participation of tutor and
students discussion through computer-mediated
communication (CMC). The descriptions cover
the nature of participation; tutor-student and
student-student interactions; the' nature of
assisted performance; and the social network in
the particular tasks. This paper offers an
analysis of interaction patterns between tutor-student
and student-student in different nature of
tasks. Analysis shows that the pattern of
assisted performance by a peer or the tutor
could depend one or more of these factors: type
of task (the nature of task initiated), group
formation (either one whole big group or small
working group) and the tutor management (the
degree of tutor involvement in responding to
students' posting).
