Title
Steps Towards a 'Dialogic' Grammar
Abstract
In this chapter we look at three ‘grammars’ of educational technology, or ways of using and thinking about education technology, that are informed by the advent of the internet: online mediated communities of practice, educational online multi-user role-play games, and connectivism. Each of these grammars has different strengths and weaknesses. Our critique leads us towards a new way of understanding the role of educational technology which we call a ‘dialogic’ grammar or a dialogic foundation for the design of educational technology.
