Abstract
Typically, online conversations within a university course or a community of professionals tend to take the form of a dialogue or discussion focusing on a given theme. The two cases presented here are quite different, despite being goal-related. Cronje and Rauscher explored the affective domain of e-mail messages sent during an online course, whereas Sherry and Obermeyer explored design conversations among key administrators and technology leaders within a national network of teacher educators.
