About this title

Synopsis

How do speakers of English as an additional language manage their talk and interaction in chat rooms? Christopher J. Jenks thoroughly analyses the interactional effects of technology, and explores in detail the social and linguistic implications of communicating in second language chat rooms. Providing a unique look at how second language talk is organized in an online setting, this book is essential reading for postgraduate students and scholars in computer-mediated communications, social interactions, TESOL and applied linguistics. It focuses on voice-based chat rooms instead of text-based ones, adding to and enriching the existing body of research on second language textbooks within computer-mediated communication studies.

His research deals primarily with computer-mediated communication, intercultural communication, English as a lingua franca, and second language acquisition.
