  • Abstract
    American preservice teachers and Taiwanese university students of English-as-a-foreign-language corresponded via e-mail and computer conferencing to prepare U.S. preservice teachers for online teaching and reaching diverse learners, and to provide English instruction to Taiwanese students. Taiwanese students practiced English and exchanged cultural information. Participants reported on their levels of success in the connection. The researcher identified types of learning achieved in the connection and summarized the online learning strategies applied by the Taiwanese. Then strategies were related to levels of success.
