Student’s Voices and Meaning Potentials in Asynchronous Dialogues

• The aim of this study is to examine and describe in what way student teachers use their own and others words meanings content in asynchronous dialogues as a collaborative learning activity in three web-based courses over a period of 60 weeks. The students’ contributions to the course assignments, the group responses and the collaborative discussions were analysed and interpreted based on Bakhtin’s and Rommetveit’s theories on dialogic interactions, voices and meaning potentials in asynchronous dialogues. The results describe different dialogic interactions of meaning potentials and multiple voices in asynchronous dialogues, which students and teachers can use as a tool for learning in net-learning activities.
