Abstract

The aim of this study is to characterize the gra¬duate student perspectives on a virtual dialogic teaching initiative oriented to the revision of dissertation chapters written by the students themselves. Within an exploratory qualitative study in-depth interviews are taken with 12 stu-dents from three seminar editions. The analy¬sis shows three relevant categories regarding online dialogic teaching of writing: time ma¬nagement, synchronous exchange and digital technologies. There are three senses of the tem¬poral dimension: times relative to the seminar schedule, to the student daily life, and to the in¬tellectual process of writing practices. Further-more, a combination of heavy asynchronous load with synchronous encounters is valued. Re¬garding the technologies, the students generate environments that take advantages of devices’ technological potential based on the physical environment possibilities and also value the pedagogical relevance of the applications. The category properties show some changes of gra¬duate writing, and its dialogic teaching in the digital world.
