I Pondered Lonely as a Cloud

Have spent a couple of hours in the outdoors rereading drafts of my dissertation. I am becoming concerned that what I am writing does not do justice to the semiotic significance and textual role that ICT tools seem to play in the learning spaces I have spent so much time observing. Have I missed the point, I don't think so, since this has been at the heart of my thinking throughout the writing process? So what is it that has me so concerned? Perhaps I am beginning to see a lack of clarity in my description of the links I think can be evidenced between the dynamic role of onscreen feedback and the role of talk and gesture in mediating and supporting student learning in the spaces that evolve around the ICTs. Enjoying a coffee and a spot of wireless access in a local hostelry, my Asus and Ping as company.
