Students need to see each other as the legitimate source of knowledge. They need to see the real value of sharing. So their posts are not just summary or gist of their reading, but different perspectives they can put forward through reading. It's a sort of developmental stages they have to go through.... haha, you are welcome to quote it!! :-)

I guess I am too into a "immediate response" type of person. Therefore I lost the sensitivity to see this issue more clearly. Can I quote this post in my paper?? haha :) Something comes out from my work that people see each other as competitors, esp students. They would read, but dun wanna write. Of coz it is also asso with your points above. But when their performance is being assessed, they really dun wanna share their digested thoughts publically. They see their words are their effort. Then y some ppl could jsut go to the forum and get all the digested essence out of the content? I really like the way you described the asynchronous communication as a one-way glass.
