Abstract

This research is inspired by recent technological development in online language learning in Vietnam. The main aim of this study was to investigate interpersonal interaction in an online English language learning environment at a Vietnamese university. The key aspects of interaction were explored including patterns, influencing factors and the contribution of facilitated interactions to the learners’ English competence. A mixed methods design guided the collection of the data. Salmon’s (2003) model of teaching and learning online was adopted as the main theoretical framework to interpret the study findings.
