11/10/2001 07:58:03 EST <moderator1> Simon, the audio isn't running yet - watch this space! I'll let you all know when the speaker is ready!

11/10/2001 07:58:23 EST <Vance> watches carefully

11/10/2001 07:58:43 EST <Michael Coghlan> smiles at Vance

11/10/2001 07:59:00 EST <Ruaridh> Can we start already? (Eric?)

11/10/2001 07:59:34 EST <Phil Brabbs> Ready

11/10/2001 07:59:34 EST <Vance> acknowledges smile but knows Michael is preparing himself

11/10/2001 07:59:44 EST <DavidSmith> i don't think they're quite ready yet Ruaridh 11/10/2001 07:59:49 EST <Ruaridh> Hi David? I'll think I'll change back to my real name soon.

11/10/2001 08:00:14 EST <Ruaridh> I'm so keen.

11/10/2001 08:00:24 EST <MikeIvy> This is amazing - I hope my Toshiba portable doesn't overheat

11/10/2001 08:00:24 EST <DavidSmith> actually I'm not David, this is Lisa White :-) 11/10/2001 08:00:25 EST <DavidSmith> only joking ;-)

11/10/2001 08:01:34 EST <MikeIvy> OK, it's starting. I have the spkr rustling his papers. 11/10/2001 08:01:34 EST <Vance> I was expecting Mozart

11/10/2001 08:01:34 EST <moderator1> Yes, he's about to start!

11/10/2001 08:01:44 EST <Phil Brabbs> Lots of scuffling and zipping

11/10/2001 08:10:15 EST <tonyryan> i can hear

11/10/2001 08:10:16 EST <garyroelofs> sound is great here

11/10/2001 08:10:19 EST <Phil Brabbs> No problem loud and clear

11/10/2001 08:10:20 EST <stevewalters> yes, with you

11/10/2001 08:10:33 EST <MikeIvy> Hi there Paul Sweeney

11/10/2001 08:10:35 EST <Budapest1> we're listening to you.

11/10/2001 08:10:36 EST <Miriam> from Florida

11/10/2001 08:10:46 EST <GeorginaMoorhouse> Still got sound here

11/10/2001 08:11:05 EST <nataliaminova> Latvia is enjoying

11/10/2001 08:11:14 EST <Stefan_U> it is probably some strange config-problem, thanx a lot, moderator

11/10/2001 08:11:45 EST <Miriam> Good issues, Michael--we need to think deeper about this

11/10/2001 08:12:25 EST <Guest> Czechia can hear fine now

11/10/2001 08:12:25 EST <moderator1> Now on slide 13

11/10/2001 08:13:23 EST <MikeIvy> Hi Caroline Moore

11/10/2001 08:13:46 EST <caroline moore> hi Mike, and Tony

11/10/2001 08:13:46 EST <alejandromartinez> Hi Caroline from Guadalajara

11/10/2001 08:13:56 EST <Phil Brabbs> Can I ask who the guest is from Czechia - Phil in Plzen

11/10/2001 08:13:56 EST <Vance> slide 15

11/10/2001 08:13:59 EST <MikeIvy> That's slide 15

11/10/2001 08:14:08 EST <Ruaridh> Question: Does e-mail encourage pointless communication?

11/10/2001 08:14:10 EST <tonyryan> Hello CAroline!

11/10/2001 08:14:24 EST <mariajordano> By the way do you know where can I find some rupes for writing formal emails?

11/10/2001 08:14:36 EST <caroline moore> no, wrong Caroline Moore - I'm from London, but I know CM from Guardalajara

11/10/2001 08:15:04 EST <MikeIvy> But in slide 15 the presence of the screamer (!) softens the tone a bit.

11/10/2001 08:15:16 EST <Guest> the Czech guest is misa pisova from Pradubice - do not know why the name did not show

11/10/2001 08:15:33 EST <Budapest1> Do you find teaching/facilitating e-mail communication for students eaier or more difficult than 'in-person' communication? 11/10/2001 08:16:04 EST <Budapest1> Budapest meant a QUESTION.

11/10/2001 08:16:14 EST <Phil Brabbs> Hi Misa, yes you signed on as a guest. I think you need to disconnect and then re sign on with your name

11/10/2001 08:16:15 EST <marciaadato> How do you let students know that their email language is inappropriate?

11/10/2001 08:16:17 EST <Caroline L> Hi folks. Which slide please?

11/10/2001 08:16:26 EST <caroline moore> 17

11/10/2001 08:16:26 EST <MikeIvy> slide 17

11/10/2001 08:16:36 EST <Caroline L> Just got it going - installed wmp7.1

11/10/2001 08:16:46 EST <garyroelofs> body language or tone of voice, which is at least present on the phone

11/10/2001 08:16:46 EST <Caroline L> Thanks

11/10/2001 08:16:54 EST <Vance> cheers

11/10/2001 08:16:54 EST <MikeIvy> 18 now

11/10/2001 08:17:04 EST <caroline moore> yes, very

11/10/2001 08:17:16 EST <Guest> Hi Phil thanks I will try

11/10/2001 08:17:26 EST <MikeIvy> But that's the function of smileys etc

11/10/2001 08:17:36 EST <Phil Brabbs> Yes, I find it very difficult to know when I can use first name at beginning. Writing to Ms Smith seems really weird in an email

11/10/2001 08:17:36 EST <christinesabieh> finally.....I was able to reconnect!<Enter Text Here>

11/10/2001 08:17:56 EST <caroline moore> hi david

11/10/2001 08:18:25 EST <Ruaridh> Question: Do you feel that smileys and emoticons convey enough emotion and body language?

11/10/2001 08:18:35 EST <MikeIvy> I guess I treat e-mails as formal letters at the start of an acquaintance.

11/10/2001 08:18:57 EST <Tom Savage> A 1988 study (Sherblom) revealed that none of the messages sent 'down' the chain in a large organisation were signed whilst 33% of those sent up were.

11/10/2001 08:19:09 EST <garyroelofs> mike--those conventions are really narrow and not as "programmed" or culturally defined as pauses, sighs, giggles

11/10/2001 08:19:16 EST <Phil Brabbs> Mikeivy Yes, I do too at the beginning so I don't offend but it still feels odd

11/10/2001 08:19:49 EST <caroline moore> whoops!

11/10/2001 08:19:51 EST <marciaadato> we hear you

11/10/2001 08:19:52 EST <alejandromartinez> Audio is fine

11/10/2001 08:19:52 EST <stevewalters> audio still here

11/10/2001 08:19:52 EST <Ruaridh> Audio still going fine.

11/10/2001 08:19:55 EST <davem> we hear you

11/10/2001 08:19:57 EST <Phil Brabbs> Audio still fine

11/10/2001 08:20:07 EST <angela hulme> you're coming through fine

11/10/2001 08:20:07 EST <Vance> we hear you, but you don't read us

11/10/2001 08:20:07 EST <caroline moore> I can hear Michael speaking

11/10/2001 08:20:07 EST <geofftaylor> you're still on in UK

11/10/2001 08:20:27 EST <MikeIvy> But have you noticed the absence of the word "Dear" at the start ofe-mails? ThoOK in the most formal ltrz, it seems some ppl feel uncomfortable with it in e-mails.

11/10/2001 08:20:27 EST <caroline moore> bet this happens when it's my turn 11/10/2001 08:20:27 EST <Budapest1> we hear you fine

11/10/2001 08:20:36 EST <caroline moore> what slide are we on?

11/10/2001 08:20:57 EST <MikeIvy> 23 Caro

11/10/2001 08:20:57 EST <Caroline L> QUESTION/COMMENT: Does it matter to whom? I find this unpunctuated stuff a bit irritating in an offline email, and I'm sure I'm not the only one!

11/10/2001 08:21:17 EST <tonyryan> 23, I think

11/10/2001 08:21:27 EST <Phil Brabbs> Mike yes I often now write Hi x or might even put Ms Smith at the beginning without the Dear

11/10/2001 08:21:46 EST <Caroline L> Well, what do you folk think?

11/10/2001 08:22:47 EST <MikeIvy> QU./COMMENT: Absolutely agree about acknowledgment.

11/10/2001 08:22:58 EST <paulsweeney> I like email cos it's so versatile, a casual note to a mate or a letter of complaint to B.A.

11/10/2001 08:23:05 EST <David Eastment> I don't have a problem with it, Caro L 11/10/2001 08:23:15 EST <mariajordano> Hi David

11/10/2001 08:23:27 EST <mariajordano> Do recognize me?

11/10/2001 08:23:37 EST <Caroline L> But Paul, you'd use different styles for these, wouldn't <you?

11/10/2001 08:23:42 EST <caroline moore> I'm usually comfortable with email, couldn't do my job without it really

11/10/2001 08:23:43 EST <David Eastment> Agree with Paul! (hey Maria, hi!! - name fooled me!)

11/10/2001 08:24:06 EST <mariajordano> Why?

11/10/2001 08:24:08 EST <Tom Savage> QUESTION: Where does email fit into the 'response demand' continuum? Are we more likely to ignore a ringing telephone, a knocked door, a letter through the post or an email?

11/10/2001 08:24:13 EST <Caroline L> But David E., would you admit that some of our students' correspondents might have?

11/10/2001 08:24:18 EST <MikeIvy> QU./COMMENT: important thing is to communicate meaning effectively.

11/10/2001 08:24:25 EST <paulsweeney> Of course Caroline, but that's why I like it. 11/10/2001 08:24:26 EST <mariajordano> Mario R told me about you

11/10/2001 08:24:37 EST <David Eastment> God yes, Caro l!!

11/10/2001 08:24:55 EST <mariajordano> Nice to see you here!

11/10/2001 08:25:07 EST <David Eastment> You too Maria!

11/10/2001 08:25:43 EST <Caroline L> OK then we're agreed, David E.

11/10/2001 08:27:36 EST <MikeIvy> QU./COMMENT: Odd, tho, to go back to a previous topic, that while "Dear" is fine in a very formal letter, ppl avoid it in e-mails.

11/10/2001 08:28:14 EST <MikeIvy> "Waiting" again.

11/10/2001 08:28:15 EST <mariajordano> anyone from Spain?

11/10/2001 08:28:15 EST <Caroline L> Yes, sound - and a shame if we lost the first part cause I couldn't log on then - could you do a recorded voiceover for the archives? 11/10/2001 08:28:17 EST <tonyryan> sound gone again

11/10/2001 08:28:18 EST <angela hulme> nothing again

11/10/2001 08:28:28 EST <Arthur McKeown> I waited, I buffered, then lost it again ... 11/10/2001 08:28:28 EST <GeorginaMoorhouse> none here

11/10/2001 08:28:28 EST <David Eastment> Audio came - and went - rather like Prufrock 11/10/2001 08:28:28 EST <estelavillamarin> ilost sound again

11/10/2001 08:28:33 EST <stevewalters> Does anyone know if there is alist of delegates anywhere?

11/10/2001 08:28:55 EST <Phil Brabbs> One thing I do find annoying is when people reply at the BOTTOM on an email instead of the top

11/10/2001 08:28:55 EST <mariajordano> look at you right

11/10/2001 08:28:55 EST <christinesabieh> Yes.....that would be appreciated....... 11/10/2001 08:28:55 EST <Budapest1> tactful pause for a discussion.

11/10/2001 08:28:55 EST <David Eastment> No Steve, don't think there is but would have been a good idea!

11/10/2001 08:28:58 EST <mariajordano> Users: 34

11/10/2001 08:29:03 EST <nataliaminova> A list of delegates available is a good idea 11/10/2001 08:29:05 EST <mariajordano> 33

11/10/2001 08:29:28 EST <David Eastment> Maria - list on the right is only the peeps in the chat room

11/10/2001 08:29:28 EST <Arthur McKeown> Steve, there's probably a bar but i have not found it :-)

11/10/2001 08:29:28 EST <moderator1> Please hang on everyone! Trying to get Michael's audio back online

11/10/2001 08:29:38 EST <Ruaridh> There's a list of people in the chat room.

11/10/2001 08:29:40 EST <MikeIvy> Not yet.

11/10/2001 08:29:40 EST <garyroelofs> I can imagine "techies" scrambling round trying settings looking in control panels and such--interesting picture, but no sound

11/10/2001 08:29:50 EST <alejandromartinez> Slide 28 no sound

11/10/2001 08:29:53 EST <Vance> me neither

11/10/2001 08:29:53 EST <moderator1> Marcia the sound has crashed. Please wait for further info.

11/10/2001 08:30:05 EST <stevewalters> I also wonder why some people have chosen to use pseudonyms as they might in a chat room, whereas they woudn't in a conference 11/10/2001 08:30:05 EST <angela hulme> waiting

11/10/2001 08:30:05 EST <Caroline L> Glad it's not only me!

11/10/2001 08:30:18 EST <MikeIvy> QU./COMMENT: here's an ishoo for synchronous comm: devices for knowing who's replied to which question?

11/10/2001 08:30:18 EST <Vicki Hollett> Isn't this chat box amazing - to get the streams of thoughts of umpteen people while you're listening to the talk.

11/10/2001 08:30:28 EST <caroline moore> perhaps we should click through the slides and discuss

11/10/2001 08:30:28 EST <Ruaridh> Time to take notes!

11/10/2001 08:30:40 EST <christinesabieh> I can image what is going on! 11/10/2001 08:30:40 EST <David Eastment> pmsl That's why peeps luv chat, Vicki!

11/10/2001 08:31:20 EST <Caroline L> Why. Steve? Try typing your own name into Google and see what comes up!! My name brings up all of the chatroom rubbish from the Cyprus conference!

11/10/2001 08:31:20 EST <Phil Brabbs> sorry 28!

11/10/2001 08:31:30 EST <tonyryan> Question: How do you learn to use smilies/emoticons (is that the word?)

11/10/2001 08:31:30 EST <garyroelofs> mike--eric moderated a chat from Cyprus last summer that did it wonderfully and the transcript is worth studying

11/10/2001 08:31:30 EST <geofftaylor> Gilly Salmon's 5 stage model is super

11/10/2001 08:31:48 EST <moderator1> The sound will return when Michael gets his stream going again. Please wait!

11/10/2001 08:31:48 EST <christinesabieh> Vance, have you heard anything about the Cyprus conference proceedings?

11/10/2001 08:32:15 EST <stevewalters> That's one reason Caroline, but I am sure there are others, Maybe a reflex?

11/10/2001 08:32:28 EST <Vance> can you see it in detail?

11/10/2001 08:32:28 EST <estelavillamarin> please, I want to know if anybody has got sound

11/10/2001 08:33:34 EST <Caroline L> Perhaps, Tom Sa vage, because the forms are found necessary - mails to friends vs. mails in business - or also perhaps native and none-native speaker mails! - interesting, hmm?

11/10/2001 08:39:11 EST <moderator1> Yoshie, in the top frame of your window (above this Chat Room) is the text containing the link to Michael's slides.

11/10/2001 08:40:14 EST <Caroline L> QUESTION: Shouldn't there be a non-assessed place for interaction (mailing list perhaps?) Afrer all, you wouldn't grade conversation in the corridor!

11/10/2001 08:40:39 EST <marciaadato> sound gone again

11/10/2001 08:40:59 EST <GeorginaMoorhouse> Caroline L - agree, not all should be assessed.

11/10/2001 08:46:27 EST <Ruaridh> Oh. What should I do?

11/10/2001 08:46:27 EST <Caroline L> Smaller groups or pairs perhaps?

11/10/2001 08:46:27 EST <mariajordano> do you know how to record this with windows media in a cd?

11/10/2001 08:46:33 EST <estelavillamarin> anyone from Argentina?

11/10/2001 08:47:59 EST <Vance> it's not chaotic, just disjunct

11/10/2001 08:48:48 EST <Budapest1> A chatoic kind of life

11/10/2001 08:48:53 EST <marciaadato> Question: What do you think of requiring Discussion participation in an online course and giving points for that participation? 11/10/2001 08:49:01 EST <alejandromartinez> Plus the smileys

11/10/2001 08:49:01 EST <Caroline L> BUT how well does multitasking work - TV during HWK and one will suffer!!:-)

11/10/2001 08:49:21 EST <mariajordano> I think you have to learn to live with it, just get used to

11/10/2001 08:51:11 EST <geofftaylor>

11/10/2001 08:51:31 EST <MikeIvy> Well, one way could be to try the British Council's Learn English site and log on to its chat facility.

11/10/2001 08:51:31 EST <lenkabucherova> THANK YOU , Michael for interesting presentation

11/10/2001 08:51:41 EST <moderator1> stay put for our next speaker - Dr. Radislav Millrood.

11/10/2001 08:52:26 EST <Miriam C> Vance, what is Webheads' URL?

11/10/2001 08:52:31 EST <Davemillican> Question: Does the use of chat pose serious threat of viruses? - our college won't allow it

11/10/2001 08:53:17 EST <Vance> http://sites.hsprofessional.com/vstevens/files/efi/webheads.htm

11/10/2001 08:53:52 EST <Vance> they're probably worried about other compromises to server security

11/10/2001 08:53:52 EST <moderator1> Please post any further Qs for Michael on the discussion forum (follow the link from the conference site)

11/10/2001 08:54:02 EST <Vance> collects his conference bag and sidles toward the exit 11/10/2001 08:54:12 EST <moderator1> Bye Vance!

11/10/2001 08:55:22 EST <Guest> pleasantly anarchic

11/10/2001 08:55:22 EST <Tom Savage> I'd like to know if any of my questions were discussed!

11/10/2001 08:56:20 EST <moderator1> Tom, the discussion forum will have Qs for the speaker - he chose not to address them at the end (due to the midway hitch in audio). Sorry about that!
